Chicken In Green Curry (Gang Keao Wan Gai)
1 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
1 1/2 tablespoon green curry paste
2 1/2 lb boneless chicken sliced
1 into 1-inch strips
1 cup sliced bamboo shoots
1/4 cup fish sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 small bunch mint leaves chopped
1 (about 1/4 cup) or oriental basil leaves
2 fresh green chili peppers
1 seeded & thinly sliced
In a large saucepan, heat 1/4 cup of coconut milk with the green curry paste. Stir until it is
well blended and a thin coat of oil appears on the surface. Add the chicken and continue cooking
over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in the remaining coconut milk and the
bamboo shoots, fish sauce, and sugar. Cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until chicken is
cooked. Remove cover and stir in mint leaves and chili peppers. Cook, stirring for 3-5 minutes.
