Additional Tips

Authentic Thai cuisine uses sesame or nut oil; olive oil is a personal preference.

The green curry paste has been measured for a very mild curry. Increase, or decrease it, it to taste.

Try using 1 stem lemon grass, outer leaves removed and finely chopped, instead of lime juice for a subtler flavor.

Check the list of ingredients in the fish sauce, it should be free of gluten or dairy, but it depends on the manufacturer.
