How was it? This is my favorite food. I’ve tried t make it a few times but I haven’t gotten it right.

Delicious! I don't know much about Thai cuisine though, so I can't really compare, can't tell if the taste was right, but it was really good :)

I’m cooking the rice up for our fried rice tonight and seeing this made me want to switch to a Thai curry. Looks delish.

Ingridients used?

For the paste: fresh coriander, Thai chili, galangal, lemongrass, garlic, shallots, lime juice, ground spices (coriander, cumin, pepper, tumeric), little fish sauce.
For the curry: the paste above, some veggie stock, coconut milk, shrimp, eggplants, peas, fish sauce, lime juice.

First attempt? Not bad!
How did you think it came out?
Would you make it again?
Thanks! I would make it again, but maybe I'll skip the eggplant, and add more chillies in the paste. Really tasty, not much work to make. It's a win. The only issue is finding some of the ingredients. Today I was surprised to see galangal and lemongrass at my local supermarket. That's... so rare.
Do you have international markets nearby you can go to?
You have got to go to an Asian market and get the Thai eggplants. They are not purple. They are like green golf balls. They are really good and much better than the purple eggplants in this. Also don't use peas. Why are there peas?? Much love from thailand
