I am not a big fan of curry (of any type) honestly, but when I tried the green curry once few months back, I loved it instantly, and that has made me coming back for more!
Ingredients:
Chicken (just enough for three)
Thai green curry paste
Onion
Cherry tomatoes
Ladyfingers
Dried chillies (optional)
Approximately a cup of coconut milk
Although I am not fond of curry, that doesn’t mean that I do not like spicy food. Due to my extremely health conscious attitude back then, I try to avoid chilli or spicy food as much as I could. I was a health conscious freak and I’d gone a bit too far, I have to admit. :) Maybe I shall write about it next time.
Anyway back to my green curry. Thinking that the curry paste might not be spicy enough, I chucked in 4 dried chillies to add on the kicks. (I did not add in any dried chillies the first time I cooked it.)
And oh my… it was a terrible mistake…
Just the first spoonful was lethal enough to numb my tongue and set my lips on fire! Next were the teary eyes and runny nose episodes. Unlike wasabi which can be described by “easy come easy go”, this burning sensation lingered on for ages. The curry was exceptionally HOT, so hot that the witness of two life-size volcanoes eruption was made possible before my very own eyes. The couple has literally gone from yellow to orangie to alarming RED then to…*BOOOOOM*, exploded.
The only words that HYin managed to say were: “Wah, this is really HOT!” and she has to stop for a few times to catch her breath before continuing; whereas LJ…my my…poor him… pearls of sweat kept rolling down his forehead and yet he never gave up. I couldn’t help but to laugh hysterically at the sight of them.
So by the end of the meal, everyone has got 2 extra sexy HotDogs in return.
I am so soree guys, it was my fault to add in 4 dried chillies, never thought that ‘4’ is the number to kill. I will be more considerate next time. :)
