Lately I’m in a mood for Thaï food, I don’t know why.
on the picture you have my attempt of this dish, but I will give you my girlfriend’s recipe that is way better.

- 4 chicken breast
- 150gr of Thaï green curry paste
- 700ml of coconut milk
- 150gr of mange-tout
- 1 tablespoon of fish sauce
- Wash and cut in bite size pieces the okras, baby corns, eggplants, long beans. Slice the onion and cut in two the mange-touts.
- Dice the chicken breast in bite size pieces.
- Crush the garlic, do some incisions on the lemongrass and cut the galangal in two.
- Fry the onion in a pan on a medium high heat with a little bit of the curry paste.
- Add the chicken and the fish sauce and stir fry on high heat.
- Steam the okras, eggplants and the long beans and start to cook the rice.
- Add to the pan the baby corns, the mange-touts and the garlic and cook for a couple of minutes.
- Add the coconut milk, green curry paste, the galangal, the lemongrass and the crushed lime leaves and reduce heat to medium low. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes.

It is great with some long rice.
