Description
This was from one of the first contestants, susannah locketti, of food networks next food network star show. I would like to thank everyone who has posted such nice comments, but really susannah deserves credit for this recipe. The green curry paste is quite hot, so you may want to adjust the curry paste for heat.
I've updated the recipe to just reflect a few things noted in the comments as well as my own preparation methods that i've noticed in three years since i published this recipe.
Enjoy!
