Thai Style- Red Chicken Curry with Coconut Milk

I am on a cooking spree these days, and m really into Thai Cuisine, yesterday I made Thai style Mango & Onion salad with fish sauce...me and my husband had it with Deep Fried Red snippier fish... it was not as good as we expected it to be. Just two days back we saw this programme in TLC- Planet Food  the programme was about Thailand cuisine  hosted by Merriless Parker and were totally hooked on to it till the end of the show...it was a late nite show so the next morning  me and my husband decided to make some of the dishes...we went to the Spar supermarket and bought all the ingredients to make Thai Style- Red Chicken Curry with Coconut Milk...after google searching for the correct recipe and after tweaking it to suit our taste  we made it for lunch today and it was  really...really  yumm....the rating according to my husband is 8/10 which is not at all bad for a first amateuresh attempt. Try it if you love Thai food.
