Method

  • step 1

    Open the coconut milk, pour the thin milk into a jug, keeping back any thick coconut cream. Scoop the coconut cream into a blender. Add 2-3 tbsp of the coconut milk plus curry paste, sugar and coriander stalks and blend to a smooth paste. Heat a wok, tip in the paste, stir fry for 1-2 mins, then pour in the remaining milk from the jug.

  • step 2

    Bring to a simmer, then add the prawns and spinach. Cook until the prawns are heated through and spinach has wilted. Add lime juice and fish sauce, then spoon into bowls. Scatter over coriander leaves and serve with plain rice or noodles.

RECIPE TIPS
MAKING IT ONE-POT OR VEGGIE

Quick easy and delicious. Needs a first class paste though. My Thai curry.com are the best!! Absolutely superb. And good quality coconut milk. M&S do a Thai one for £1.00 and it’s 60%coconut extract.

This was a good curry but I did add some bits to it otherwise I felt it might be too runny. I fried an onion and red pepper together then added the blended curry paste (I used red thai curry paste as it was in the cupboard). I added in a small tin of sweetcorn and cooked green beans at the same…

Delicious. Added red pepper, onion, and baby corn and served with rice noodles. Easy and really tasty.

This was my first time making thai green curry. It was delicious! I used sugar snaps and red peppers as well as the baby spinach but otherwise followed the recipe. The peppers added some lovely colour!
