For my recipe I used a thai red curry paste. I know a lot of people prefer to make their own curry pastes at home but to be honest, most days I just don’t have the time and the flavours that you get in the ready-made paste are so tasty.

I’ve only used one teaspoon of the paste so as to keep the heat of this curry very mild and kid-friendly. But if you are cooking it for adults then feel free to add a lot more.

    Yum! This was mild enough for both myself and my little one as I don’t like spicy food so we both really enjoyed it.
