Tips and Variations

We used Turban Chopsticks Green Curry Paste. For a serving of 4 it was very mild and used approx. half a jar. The other half a jar we suggest freezing for a later date. If you would like a warmer curry, add a sliced green chilli to the dish. 
VEGETARIAN - Use 600 grams of soft tofu.
LOW CARB - Replace rice with cauliflower rice. 
GLUTEN FREE 
VEGETABLE SWAPS - With beans and snow peas quite expensive at the moment, we suggest swapping with zucchini, baby corn, or even frozen beans.
