Critical Success Points

  • Finely chop aromatics (lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime leaves) to avoid tough bits in curry.
  • Sauté aromatics and curry paste gently to release flavors without burning.
  • Simmer chicken in curry base, not separately, for maximum flavor infusion.
  • Add coconut milk only after chicken is partially cooked and do not boil vigorously.
  • Taste before adding salt; curry paste may already be salty.

Safety Warnings

  • Galangal can be tough and fibrous; chop finely to avoid choking hazard.
  • Be cautious with hot oil and splattering when frying aromatics and garnish.
  • Wash hands after handling raw chicken to prevent cross-contamination.
