Vegetables and chicken swim in a spicy red curry sauce that is cooled down with coconut milk.
Heat the oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat and cook the onion for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the curry paste and garlic and cook, stirring, for a minute. Add the coconut milk, stock, fish sauce, and the sugar, then barely bring to a boil. Add the potatoes, red pepper and beans, cover with a lid, then reduce the heat to medium. After about 4-5 minutes, add your bok choy. Simmer for about 8 more minutes.
While the curry simmers, cook the rice according to package directions.
Add the chicken to the curry and simmer, covered, for a further 8 minutes. Then stir in the lime juice (of both limes) and basil.
Cook rice according to package directions for 2 cups.
Serve on a bed of rice. Accompany with a lime quarter.
Variations: This curry tastes equally delicious using any selection of seafood (such as shrimp, scallops or pieces of firm fish), or cubed firm tofu. You can also use a variety of different vegetables with this curry including chopped zucchini, thinly sliced carrot or other vegetables. Be flexible and adapt the recipe to make the most of seasonal produce.

I have made this several times. I use light coconut milk, and little extra chicken broth as we like it best as soup. For myself I’d add more curry paste, but my husband is not a real spicy food eater. I’ve passed the recipe on to many others.

Tessymo – I always use light. Especially once I found out how bad for you the regular was! Yes – you can spice it up as much as you like! Glad you enjoyed it!

We enjoyed this dish. When I make it again, I’ll use light coconut milk and more curry paste. My vegetables also ended up on the overcooked side, so I guess I’ll have to be more careful about that.
Thanks for a tasty recipe!
