    Lovely. I followed the instructions on the jar of curry paste and cooked the chicken first, added the paste, then stirred in the coconut milk.

    This was lovely and the chicken cooked perfectly in the sauce. Brown rice was a nice variation too, although I didn't quite cook it correctly!

    lovely recipe and I was surprised the chicken cooked so well in the sauce. Good introduction to thai flavours for those who aren't so keen on the hotter side of things.
