Tips:

  • Use full-fat coconut milk: This will give your curry a richer, creamier flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to use a lot of vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, texture, and nutrients to your curry. Feel free to add more or less vegetables depending on your preference.
  • Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices will give your curry the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs or spices on hand, you can use dried herbs and spices, but be sure to use less since they are more concentrated.
  • Simmer your curry for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer your curry, the better it will taste.
  • Serve your curry with rice or naan bread: Rice or naan bread are the perfect accompaniments to a Thai curry. They will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:
