Green curry is a vibrant and flavorful dish originating from Thai cuisine, known for its rich and aromatic profile. Its signature green color comes from fresh green chilies and herbs like Thai basil, cilantro, and kaffir lime leaves. The curry paste typically includes ingredients such as garlic, shallots, lemongrass, and galangal, blended together to create a fragrant base. Coconut milk adds creaminess, while vegetables like eggplant, zucchini, or bamboo shoots, along with protein options like chicken, shrimp, or tofu, complete the dish. Health-wise, green curry provides vitamins, antioxidants, and healthy fats from the coconut milk and herbs. However, its richness means it can be high in calories and saturated fat, depending on the recipe. Served with steamed rice, it’s a balanced meal when enjoyed in moderation, showcasing the nourishing and bold culinary traditions of Thai cuisine.
