Aroy-D Green Curry Chicken

Aroy-D Green Curry Chicken

Verdict: Win

Aroy-D is a brand of curry paste. I picked it up because it was a cheap way to get all the spices required of green curry. All the dish calls for is to fry the paste, add coconut milk, then boil cubed chicken breast in the curry until done. It takes less than 10 minutes for the chicken to cook all the way, and the chicken was very tender. The taste of the green curry was pretty good, though a little spicier than I expected. Next time I do want to try the Mae Ploy brand, as I've heard really good things about it. I'm also going to make sure I get a hold of some more Thai chili bird peppers and Thai basil. I couldn't find kaffir lime leaves anywhere, though.
