Authentic version uses Coriander Roots, Coriander, Cumin and White Pepper Seeds as well Kaffir Lime Peel. This recipe is a very quick and delicious meal to make which is perfect for a mid week dinner. The first time I heard of this dish was back when I was in uni and waitressing at a Thai restaurant.

This Thai chicken curry is case in point. In developing the recipe, the biggest challenge was figuring out the best way to cook the chicken. Add the chicken, turn up the heat to medium-high, and start stir frying constantly, mix the chicken with the curry paste. When the chicken is fully cooked, add the beans and red pepper. Stir quickly until everything is mixed together.
