    Do not use 4tbsp of real Thai green curry paste unless you are Thai or else it will be inedible.

    One of my all-time favourite dinners. Super yummy. I use chicken thigh fillets and just chop them up a little bit - they have more flavour and are often a bit cheaper than the same amount of chicken breast.

    so easy especially as i used roasted peppers from a tin it gave the dish a slightly smokey flavour. will definately be making this again possibly with mushrooms. Added chicken stock for extra flavour.

    Love love love this recipe! Used peppers, mushrooms, corgette and carrot, and chucked in a chilli to heat it up a bit, and it worked brilliantly. To quote my girlfriend - "this is one of my favourite things you've cooked so far" !

    This is a lovely dish that can be tweaked quite a bit...I used Jalfrezi paste instead of Thai curry, added more veg, like mushrooms and peas and omitted the lime. Still turned out to be a nice meal though! And freezes well.

    I love this. The rice gets all flavoured with the coconut milk - really easy to make and when you pop it the oven you have a good 20mins to have a good clean up. Great for during the week. I use mini chicken fillets, extra tender

    Fantastic quick meal - as simple as it sounds and with a great flavour. I didn't have enough green curry paste but had some red, so i used both! I very styrongly recommend this, and it will find itself as a regular on my menu.

    i used quorn fillets chopped (only half the weight), plain basmati rice, green beans and mushrooms as thats what we had and it was lovely. i also used a stock cube in the boiling water as advised by another poster and half a can of fullfat coconut milk and half can of water as i didnt have reduced fat coconut. if using quorn i recommend using when defrosted as it absorbs the curry pastes flavours better.
