  1. I’ve made this twice since I found your recipe. Big hit and so easy to make. Thanks for sharing.

  2. Adding fish sauce makes every dish taste like fish. I would highly recommend viewers to not use fish sauce.

  3. Why is the recipe in the video and the recipe as written so different? I can figure it out, but it definitely made this confusing at first.

  4. I’ve never seen green beans in a Thai red curry. Green bell peppers yes…green beans, definitely not.

  5. Easy and yummy – approved. Thank you!

    My tip: add 1ts of chilli oil per serving for mid-heat taste

  6. Chat, I am begging all of you to please use the mae ploy brand curry paste and the Aroy-D brand coconut milk

  7. I'm genuinely a bit offended by this recipe. Please let people know that it's your version of a red curry.
    Traditional Thai red curry does not include garlic, ginger, onions, salt and pepper, cornstarch, bell peppers, green beans, lemon, or cilantro.
    The curry paste you used is also one of the least authentic brands, and there was no palm sugar.
    And please use a proper Thai fish sauce brand.

    There are so many amazing YouTubers who share authentic and valuable knowledge about Thai cuisine.
    This recipe isn't the best representation of it.

    Please don't take this personally — it's just very misleading.

  8. would want to saute the onions earlier. seems strange to add them just before the coconut milk.

  9. as an asian boy, it’s not really approved for me, i’m sure it tastes good but the only flaws that it has is the ginger, green beans, onions. a lot of people mistakenly put lime juice in both thai red and green curries. just use lime zest. bell pepper is acceptable for me but not traditionally. And the biggest mistake, you did’t fry the coconut milk, you want to fry the coconut milk and when it starts bubbling you want to put the red paste and mix everything. you want to do that cause it will be a layer of oil on the top, that makes thai curries great. and don’t blend water to get the last drops of coconut milk, very european things and asian people don’t like to use water in their foods mostly. and i’d recommend you use chicken thighs with skin cause it will be more oil from the fat.
