Thai green curry is an authentic traditional dish of Thailand. It uses fresh green chillies to make the curry paste instead of the red ones. In South Thailand bird's eye chillies are added in green Thai curry, to make it spicier and hotter. Otherwise, green curries are typically less spicy than other types of curries. You can also add an assortment of vegetables in the curry stew.

I was a runner up in Singapore's Masterchef Competition Season 2. Cooking has been a passion of mine since I was young. I would always follow my grandma to the wet markets to buy groceries and watch her whip up amazing dishes. Always inspired by my grandma, I look to continue her journey in the culinary world.
