INGREDIENTS
- 80g dry rice 
- 1 Tbsp oil 
- 2 Tbsp green curry paste 
- 2 cloves of garlic, crushed 
- 1/2 chilli, finely diced (optional) - 1 Tbsp lemongrass, paste 
- 3/4 cup chicken or vegetable stock, low salt 
- 200ml full fat coconut milk 
- 1/2 cup water 
- 200g chicken thigh, diced 
- 1/2 eggplant, cut into 1cm cubes 
- 1-2 tsp fish sauce 
- 1-2 tsp sugar 
- 3 kaffir lime leaves, bruised (optional) 
- Juice from 1/2 lime 
- Coriander leaves 
METHOD
- Cook rice as per packet instructions. 
- Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. 
- Add the curry paste, garlic, chilli, and lemongrass and cook for 2-3 minutes to release the aromas, stirring continuously. 
- Add stock, kaffir lime (if using), coconut cream, and water. Bring to a simmer. 
- Add the chicken and simmer for 7 minutes. 
- Add the eggplant and cook for another 7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the eggplant is soft (may need a touch longer so do check). 
- Add fish sauce and sugar, tasting as you go. Then add the lime juice. Our goal here is to create a balance of sour, salty, and sweet - to your preference. 
- Serve over rice and garnish with coriander.
