Green Curry Paste
2 slices fresh galangal, thin slices
2 large hot green chili peppers
1 stalk lemongrass
Green Curry Dish
4 teaspoons palm oil
8 tablespoons full fat coconut milk
2 tablespoons nam pla (fish sauce)
6 tablespoons palm sugar

4 tablespoons green beans
8 thai basil leaves, ripped

1
Slice the galangal, green chilli and lemon grass very fine indeed. Then make it even finer. I can't stress enough that this really needs to be done very well. Don't worry about mixing them up together to chop, as they're all getting thrown in together anyway.
2
Throw the finely sliced galangal, chilli and lemongrass into a pestle and mortar and mash to a fine paste.
3
Heat the palm oil in a non-stick pan.
4
Briefly fry the paste until sizzling.
5
Immediately add the coconut milk and fry until sizzling.
6
Immediately add the nam pla palm sugar and chicken powder and fry until sizzling.
7
Immediately add the thinly sliced chicken breast and fry until browned.
8
Add the aubergine and bamboo and continue to sizzle.
9
Add the kaffir lime leaves and stir.
10
Add some water if needed to thin the sauce out a little bit.
11
Add the green beans and stir.
12
Add the thai basil.
13
Simmer for a minute and taste.
14
Make any required additions of palm sugar and/or nam pla to taste.
15
Serve immediately with rice of your choice.
