👨🍳How to cook
- 1
Heat coconut oil in a wok. Fry green curry paste 2 min until fragrant.

Add chicken; stir-fry 3 min. Pour in coconut milk and 100ml water.

Add aubergine, fish sauce, garlic, ginger, and lime leaves. Simmer 12 min.

Taste and adjust: more fish sauce for saltiness, a pinch of sugar for balance.

Chef's Tip
Use the thick cream from the top of the coconut milk can to 'fry' the paste — gives a richer base.
