Equipment

  • Non-Stick Frying Pan
  • Silicone Turner

Ingredients

  • 160 g green curry paste, homemade
  • 1 red chilli, cut to strips
  • 100 g baby eggplant, purple
  • 300 g pork belly, sliced
  • 5 kaffir lime leaf
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp sugar, optional
  • 200 ml water
  • 2 tbsp cooking oil, unscented

Instructions
 

Marinate

  • Marinate the pork belly slices with 2/3 tsp of salt in 2 batches. Set aside.

Cooking

  • In a non-stick pan over medium heat, cooking oil and green curry paste. Stir lightly for 2 minutes, or until evenly combined.
  • Add 3 pieces of kaffir lime leaves and 4 pieces of finger roots. Mix for 30 seconds, or until fragrant and well-combined.
  • Add pork belly, pea eggplants and purple eggplants. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring until the pork changes colour.
  • Add all the water. Mix well to combine. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 10 minutes, or until soft.
  • Add fish sauce, sugar and long beans. Stir to evenly combine.
  • Add red chilli strips, kaffir lime leaves and finger roots. Cover the pan and let it simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Stir to combine. Taste and adjust.
  • Switch off the heat and serve.

Notes

Tips
  • Add green curry paste immediately to the oil while it's still cool. This prevents large splatters.
  • Stir the green curry gravy as often as possible - it burns fairly quickly at the bottom of the pan.
  • The long beans will be quite crunchy - let it simmer for 4 minutes if soft long beans are preferred.
  • Goes well with white rice, and any omelette dish.
Storage Instructions
Can be kept overnight in the fridge once cooled completely. Reheat over medium heat until it comes to a rolling boil and serve.
Not recommended to freeze.
