A glorious green bowl of sweet and spice, the Chicken and Eggplant Green Curry is guaranteed to satiate your palette. The key to making this dish sing lies in the paste –a blended joy of Southeast Asian herbs and spices mixed with some lime juice –and the soft coconut milk that helps to relieve some of the spice in the curry. Stew it gently with chicken, eggplants and green beans and serve hot with steamed rice.
