Thank you so much, Martyna. Red curry doesn’t always give red-coloured dishes alas…

A friend of mine had a kaffir lime tree before she moved away and so my cravings for Malaysian and Thai curries began. Your soup looks great in orange – it’s my favourite colour of a curry soup. And I like the tofu and veg version, great for having a break from meat.

Thank you so much, Kiki. We also have often these discussions with my husband because we both love very hot dishes. I think red is hotter, but my beloved one is the green curry because of the slight tanginess and probably a big content of lemon grass. I particularly love it with chicken, but then I could eat chicken every day with every spice or seasoning

My friend and me discussed the following issue: what is hotter, green or red chilli paste? We both agreed the green has a more agressive taste/zing but is the best in combination with fish or seafood. Anyhow I love Thai recipes (10 years ago there was a huge data collection in the internet from one thai guy Colonel “Name forgotten”. I will always regret not to have downloaded all – only a few..) Your soup looks awsome, beautiful, I adore this colour.

Thank you, Karen. I hope you will find them finally. When you do, do not hesitate to freeze them!

Thank you, Charlie. I must admit the quickest the meal the more I’m happy.

The soup sounds delicious Sissi. It is almost impossible to find kefir leaves and lemongrass where I live. If I do find it, I’ll buy extra and freeze it.

That would have been a great Thai curry especially with the capsicum and the snow peas making it so colourful. It’s wonderful to be able to make up a meal in less than 15 minutes that is so tasty and so good for you.

Thank you so much, Helene. You are lucky to be able to grow lemon grass! Maybe the dogs liked the scent? It’s so aromatic when squashed! Kaffir lime is smaller than the most popular lime and it has wrinkled skin. Maybe it even grows in your country?

Thank you, Nami. If I were you, I would forget red or green curry. There is a yellow (r maybe slightly orange) Thai curry paste much much milder, perfect for people who don’t like hot food. You should ask in the shop (I never buy it and don’t remember the name).
I like a lot other Thai dishes, not only hot, so I totally understand why you like Thai cuisine. It’s so aromatic and full of flavours.
