Thai Prawn Curry

Sawadikha,

Thai curry either red or green curry paste can be cooked with chicken, shrimp, beef or fish. Thai prawn curry is one of my favourite dishes because I just love very hot spicy food, the more spicy the better. The curry dishes in restaurant wasn't spicy enough for me, so sometimes I ask for an extra chillies. That's how I enjoy my food, hot and spicy!
