We used to have a couple of Thai restaurants in town but not anymore. Of course, anything and everything tom yam is available here, there and everywhere at the coffee shops, cafés and restaurants but you will not be able to find anything more than that so easily.
Thankfully, my missus can cook her very own Thai green curry from scratch, as nice as the one we would order sometimes here…

…at Payung Café, complete with the terung pipit and all. I even ordered it by the kilo…

…for my Chinese New Year reunion dinner and open house – yes, it is that good!
Well, here’s a bit of good news for those of you who love Thai green curry! You can buy this instant paste…

…available in the shops in boxes, three packs in one…

…and you can use them one by one if you are not cooking that much at one go.
It is so very easy to cook – just follow the instructions on the box…

…and with just one pack, you can have a delightful bowl of Thai green curry to enjoy.
This was what was left, after one meal for the three of us, of what my missus cooked using one pack…

You can take my word for it – it was very nice and you can go and buy the terung pipit from the ethnic section at the Sibu Central Market to throw in for the complete works. Yes, the colour was kind of pale – perhaps, if you add a bit of blended green chili, you would be able to get a nicer shade of green.
Go ahead! Give it a try! Bon appetit!!!
