How to Serve Thai Green Curry

The best way to serve green curry is to accompany it with basmati rice.

My favorite way to cook basmati rice is in the Instant Pot.

A cooking method that makes the rice fluffy and lump-free.


How to store leftovers:

You can keep it for 1-2 days at most tightly sealed in an airtight container in the refrigerator.


Frequently Asked Questions

Which Is Hotter – Red Or Green Curry?

Thai green curry paste is less spicy than its red version, in any case, if you don’t like spicy too much, you can decrease the amounts, although doing so will make the dish a little less flavorful.

Making vegan green curry is so easy:


  • Use tofu instead of chicken. Or use just the vegetables.
