Recipe Note
TIPS:
If you can not find galangal, you can substitute it with ginger.
If you can not find Kaffir lime leaf, you can use juice and zest of 2 limes.
If you prefer your curry thicker, either use coconut cream or reduce the coconut milk. Traditionally, Thai green curry is runny in texture to allow the rice to soak up all the flavor.
