Ingredients

  • Chicken (450g boneless)
  • Thai green curry paste (4 tsp)
  • Coconut milk (400ml)
  • Potatoes (225g new)
  • Green beans (100g)
  • Sunflower oil (1 tbsp)
  • Garlic (1 clove)
  • Thai fish sauce (2 tsp)
  • Sugar (1 tsp)
  • Kaffir lime leaves (2 fresh)
  • Basil (handful)
  • Rice (Boiled)

Instructions

Steps

  1. Begin by placing 225g new potatoes in a pot of boiling water and cooking for 5 minutes.
  2. Add 100g green beans to the pot and cook for an additional 3 minutes until both vegetables are just tender. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a wok or large frying pan, heat 1 tbsp sunflower oil until very hot. Add 1 clove garlic, cooking until golden for just a few seconds.
  4. Stir in 4 tsp Thai green curry paste and cook briefly to enhance the flavors.
  5. Pour in 400ml coconut milk and bring to a gentle bubble.
  6. Mix in 2 tsp Thai fish sauce and 1 tsp sugar, then add 450g boneless chicken, reducing the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 8 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked.
  7. Add the drained potatoes and green beans to the curry, warming them through in the coconut milk.
  8. For a zesty touch, stir in 2 fresh kaffir lime leaves (or lime zest). Lastly, add a handful of basil leaves, cooking briefly to preserve their brightness.
  9. Garnish with lime and serve immediately alongside boiled rice.
