Gaeng Kua Gai (Red Curry with Chicken)

About This Dish

A homestyle red curry of tender chicken simmered in freshly pounded curry paste with coconut cream, Thai basil, and julienned bamboo shoots, finished with a drizzle of coconut cream on top. This beloved central Thai dish uses the kua curry technique where the paste is fried until fragrant before the coconut milk goes in, resulting in a deeply flavored but approachable curry.
