Curry might not be my favourite ingredient, but this dish looks so inviting that I definitely won’t be able to resist. Great combination of flavours and textures!

Oh I love this! The prawns and pork are a fabulous combination, and I personally prefer red curry over all of the Thai pastes. Fabulous!
Usually we have one or the other, meat or seafood, not both.
It’s hard to pick, but red curry might be my favorite type! Just one mention of it and I’m craving it like mad.
Just so comforting and full of flavor! Am getting all the ingredients this weekend to make a batch of red curry paste!
