Ingredients

Servings:4
  • Jasmine Rice(280 g)
  • Chicken thigh(600 g)
  • Rapeseed Oil(1 tbsp)
  • Onion(1)
  • Garlic(3 cloves)
  • Ginger(1 tbsp)
  • Green curry paste(3 tbsp)
  • Coconut milk(400 ml)
  • Chicken Broth(200 ml)
  • Fish sauce(1½ tbsp)
  • Brown sugar(2 tsp)
  • Kaffir Lime Leaves(4)optional
  • Green beans(200 g)
  • Thai Basil(15 g)
  • Lime(1)
  • Salt(1 tsp)

Method

  1. 1

    Rinse {Jasmine Rice} until the water runs mostly clear. Thinly slice the {Onion}, finely chop the {Garlic}, grate the {Ginger}, trim the {Green beans}, and cut the {Chicken thigh} into bite-size irregular pieces.

    ~13 min

  2. 2

    Add the {Jasmine Rice} to a saucepan with 560ml water and half of the {Salt}. Bring to a boil, cover, and cook on low until tender.

    ~12 min

  3. 3

    Heat the {Vegetable oil} in a large deep pan over medium heat. Add the {Onion} with the remaining {Salt} and cook until softened. Stir in the {Garlic}, {Ginger}, and {Green curry paste} and cook until fragrant and glossy.

    ~5 min

  4. 4

    Add the {Chicken thigh} and stir for 2 minutes to coat in the curry base. Pour in the {Coconut milk}, {Chicken Stock}, {Fish sauce}, and {Brown sugar}. Add the {Kaffir Lime Leaves}, if using, and bring to a gentle simmer.

    ~4 min

  5. 5

    Simmer the curry gently until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly. Add the {Green beans} for the last few minutes so they stay bright and tender.

    ~12 min

  6. 6

    Turn off the heat. Stir in most of the {Thai Basil} and squeeze in half the {Lime}. Fluff the rice, remove the lime leaves if you like, then serve the curry over rice with the remaining {Thai Basil} and the rest of the {Lime} cut into wedges.
