About Penang curry

Penang Curry is a rich and aromatic Thai dish originating from the Malay Peninsula. It is traditionally crafted with a creamy coconut milk base, Penang curry paste, and an assortment of vegetables, meats, or tofu. The curry paste is a blend of red chilies, lemongrass, galangal, garlic, shallots, and spices, offering bold, savory, and slightly sweet flavors. High in flavor, Penang Curry often includes healthy ingredients like fresh vegetables, herbs, and lean protein choices such as chicken or shrimp. Coconut milk provides essential fats, though it is calorie-dense; moderation is key for those mindful of fat intake. Served with jasmine rice or noodles, Penang Curry balances spice and creaminess, making it a comforting and wholesome meal with key vitamins and nutrients from its plant-based elements. However, its richness in saturated fats from coconut milk should be considered for heart-health conscious diets.
