FAQ: What Side Is Good With Thai Green Curry Rice?

What should I serve with Thai green curry?

• Defo serve the curry with fresh coriander and wedges of lime. I’m a fan of a sprinkle of sesame seeds too. Pudding – think tropical. Coconut ice cream, coconut rice pudding, mango, passion fruit, papaya, lime. That kind of thing.

What are some good side dishes to serve with Thai curry?

• Rice, of course, but the other side dishes depend on the type of curry. Most curries won’t have many vegetables, so a balanced meal should have a vegetable side dish. If the main dish was a spicy curry, the best side dish would be plain sliced vegetables (the dish on the bottom left: cucumber, Thai eggplants, string beans, galangal).

Pad Thai is a one- dish meal traditionally. Thais will eat it with a handful of raw bean sprouts and a few sprigs of garlic chives and sometimes a slice of raw banana flower.

Why is my Thai green curry watery?

A runny curry means you haven’t cooked it long enough and/or you have used coconut milk with a low percentage of solids. Authentic curries never contain any type of starch (flour). So, buy coconut milk (or cream) with the highest percentage of solids that you can find. Next, use more paste.

How do I add flavor to Thai green curry?

Tips For Flavor

1. If you want extra flavorful meat, you can sear the meat over medium heat before heating the curry sauce.
2. You can garnish your curry to add extra flavor.
3. I add fresh onion, garlic, and ginger before adding the curry sauce because they are usually already prepped and I think they add more flavor.

• Chenin Blanc.

What beer goes best with Thai food?

Off-dry Riesling is the No. 1 catch-all for a smorgasbord of takeout Thai dishes. For die-hard red wine lovers, reds can work with Thai food, too, particularly with milder dishes.

What goes with chicken curry instead of rice?
