Quick + Easy Thai Green Chicken Curry – Teaching Teens To Cook

 
  

It’s with complete self interest that I teach my two teens to cook. The more they can cook, the less I have to.

When I’ve got them up to scratch, I’ll be starting on their dad.

Dexbox, Mr Teen13, often stir fries chicken for dinner and serves it with wraps. He doesn’t seem to have mastered the vegetables yet, how odd.

Here he is stir frying. The words on the splashback are the twins’current sight words by the way. We write them up with Smiggle’s liquid chalk.

When I made a Thai green chicken curry last week, he loved it and was keen to give it a whirl. No problem son!

This recipe is from Philadelphia and comes straight off the tub of their Philly Cream for Curry – Thai Green Cury.

Here’s the original recipe

Thai Green Chicken Curry

1. Combine 3 sauteed sliced spring onions to 400g of cooked chicken tenderloins, cut into strips.

3. Toss trough 100g blanched snow peas, 100g trimmed and cooked green beans and heat gently. Serve immediately over steamed rice with a sprinkle of roughly chopped coriander. 

Dex did adapt the recipe a wee bit to suit our family, here’s what he cooked.
