Description
A mild, rich coconut milk curry using yellow curry paste with chicken, potatoes, and onions — seasoned with fish sauce and palm sugar. Kaeng kari is among the most accessible of Thai curries and the one most frequently encountered outside Thailand in its adapted form. Thompson's treatment focuses on the authentic preparation — with sufficient paste to provide the turmeric and lemongrass character that commercial yellow curry pastes rarely deliver — and on the final seasoning balance that prevents the preparation from becoming merely a sweet, bland coconut sauce.
