Instructions
- Heat the vegetable oil in a pot over medium-high heat and fry the green curry paste until it's relatively dry and very fragrant. Keep it moving around the pot to ensure it doesn't burn.
- Add the water, fish sauce, coconut sugar, kaffir lime leaves, and chicken. Bring to a boil and then turn down the heat to maintain a gentle simmer until the chicken is almost tender (about 15 minutes).
- Add the eggplant, bamboo, baby corn, chili peppers, and coconut milk and cook until the eggplant is tender (about 10 minutes).
- Taste and adjust the fish sauce and coconut sugar to taste.
- Finish by adding the basil to the green curry just before serving.
