Chef’s Vegetable Notes
For the best flavour and texture we recommend using a mix of:
• Thai eggplant or zucchini
• Green beans
• Capsicum
• Bamboo shoots
These vegetables hold their shape in curry and absorb the sauce beautifully.
However remember — you are the chef in your own kitchen. Feel free to add any vegetables you like. With Aharn Thai it’s simple: Our Sauces. Your Inspiration.
Method
1. Heat the curry base
Defrost your Aharn Thai Premium Green Curry in the refrigerator overnight or microwave using the defrost setting (450 g).
Pour the curry into a saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
2. Cook the chicken
Add the sliced chicken breast and stir gently so the pieces separate.
Simmer for 4–5 minutes until the chicken is just cooked through.
3. Add vegetables
Add the eggplant (or zucchini), green beans and bamboo shoots.
Simmer for 2–3 minutes until vegetables are tender but still vibrant.
4. Finish the curry
Add the capsicum, kaffir lime leaves and Thai basil.
Simmer for 1 minute to release the aroma.
Taste and adjust if desired.
5. Serve
Serve immediately with steamed jasmine rice.
Garnish with extra Thai basil or sliced chilli if you like a little heat.
Chef’s Tips
• Slice chicken against the grain for tender pieces.
• Do not overcook vegetables — Thai curries should stay bright and fresh.
• Add a drizzle of coconut cream and fresh Thai basil at the end for extra richness.
