Step 3

In the same mortar, add a pinch of coriander powder and a pinch of cumin powder. Blend well. Transfer the curry paste into a small bowl.

Step 4

In another pot over high heat, add coconut cream, green curry paste, and kafﬁr lime leaves. Stir until mixed well and fragrant. Lower the heat to medium, add shrimp paste, fish sauce, and a pinch of palm sugar, stir to mix well.

Step 5

Add more coconut cream, beef stock, and some green chili. Then add cooked beef ribs into the curry sauce. You may add more beef stock, coconut cream, and other spices according to your taste. Turn up the heat, add a few red chilies and sweet basil leaves. Remove from the heat at once.

Step 6

Plating: Transfer the curry to a serving pot, put some Kaffir lime leaves on top, and ready to serve.

Final Notes

There’s a common misconception that Thai green curry is green in color from all the Thai basil used in the recipe. The real green color of the curry comes from green chilies. If you prefer a spicy curry, simply increase the amount of fresh green Thai chili peppers in the curry paste recipe.
