Red curry with roasted duck
Chef ThomasIngredients
Method
Pour the cooking oil into the pan, turn the heat to medium. When the oil gets hot, add the curry paste. Stir fry until it starts to smell good, then change to low heat. Add the coconut milk little by little and stir until it boils. Add the duck meat and stir well.
Add the kaffir lime leaves and season with salt and palm sugar. Taste it. If the curry is too dry, add chicken stock or even more coconut milk if you want a thicker curry. Simmer the mixture at a medium heat until it boils. Then remove it from the heat source and finalise it with sweet basil leaves and a slice of chili.
