When you make Thai chicken curry at home, you can use more of the aromatic ingredients than a restaurant would. More ginger, more Thai basil, more fish sauce, more garlic… Sometimes, more is better. Besides this, Thai chicken curry is a fabulous one-pot meal that you can cook in under 45 minutes-and it keeps well in the fridge (up to five days) or in the freezer (for a few months).
Our Final Freezer keeps it about the food. We'll show you how to make simple, delicious, healthy (and often dairy-free and gluten-free) food -- always with a twist of humor.
We don't give you recipes. We show you how.

Recipe for Thai Chicken Curry
2 pounds of chicken
12 cloves of peeled garlic
A hand of ginger (about same size as total amount of garlic)
¼ to ½ can of red curry paste
One can of coconut milk
5 fresh bamboo shoots
A large bunch of Thai basil leaves
Fish sauce
Olive oil
Steps for Making Thai Chicken Curry
1. Slice the chicken breast into thin slices.
2. Blend 12 garlic cloves and an equal amount of fresh, peeled ginger and enough olive oil to cover the garlic and ginger in a cup with an immersion blender. Blend until the garlic and ginger create a smooth paste.
3. Pluck the Thai basil leaves from the stalks and place in a separate pan.
4. Turn the stove on high and heat the olive oil and garlic/ginger paste, along with ¼ to ½ can of red curry paste.
5. Add the chicken.
6. When the edges of the chicken have turned white, add ½ to a whole can of coconut milk.
7. Add 3 tablespoons of fish sauce. Cook for two minutes uncovered.
8. Cover the pot and cook for 10 minutes.
9. Taste the curry sauce. If you want to add more fish sauce to increase the saltiness of the curry sauce, cook the ingredients for an additional two minutes.
10. Turn off the heat and add the Thai basil leaves.
11. Stir and serve.
