3 fresh lime leaves
3 sprigs Thai basil
4 fresh green chilies
1 lb chicken
1 cup eggplant

Tips:

  • Don't be afraid to adjust the heat level. Green curry can be mild, medium, or hot, depending on your preference. Add more or less green chilies to taste.
  • Use a good quality green curry paste. This is the base of the curry, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a paste that is made with fresh, flavorful ingredients.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken should be cooked through, but not tough. Overcooked chicken will be dry and chewy.
  • Serve green curry with rice or noodles. Rice is the traditional accompaniment to green curry, but noodles are also a good option.
