Sweet Potato & Prawn Coconut Curry
Amazing Thai Red Curry is a vibrant Southeast Asian classic built around a freshly pounded curry paste, gently simmered in coconut milk until rich, fragrant and deeply flavoured. This Amazing Thai Red Curry recipe combines sweet potato, pea aubergines and prawns for a perfect balance of sweetness, spice and savoury depth.
The key to an authentic Thai red curry lies in making the paste from scratch. Using a pestle and mortar releases the natural oils from lemongrass, galangal, turmeric and chilli, creating a far more aromatic base than shop bought paste. Gradually adding coconut milk and allowing the oils to split intensifies the flavour and gives the curry its signature richness.
