This month we have chosen 1 of our bestsellers from Thai Botanico, The Thai Green Chicken Curry. As we are always being asked how to make a tasty version of this much-loved dish from home our chefs have designed an easy to follow recipe that we´re sure you´ll enjoy. Whilst here at Thai Botanico we make our own green curry paste our chefs recommend that you buy a pot from an oriental food shop as it works out a lot cheaper and will last longer when only making this dish every so often.
