Red Thai Coconut Curry

Level of Difficulty: Medium
Serves: 6

I discovered this recipe when I was invited over to a friends place for dinner and I fell in love with it. It is spicy and full of flavor. I have since made the recipe my own, some of the ingredients in the original are hard to find. It is the perfect recipe for entertaining, because you can do all of the prep work and stick it in the oven till you are ready to serve. 

This is also a great meal to reheat for lunch or dinner. It is just as good as the original meal, if not better!!!  The flavor seems to blend and improve as it sits.

It is important to use Fresh Ground Pepper in this recipe. Preground may contain gluten and it does not have the flavor profile. It is also important to check the ingredients of the Coconut Milk. It should be 100% Coconut Milk. If it has added sugar the curry will burn to the bottom of the pot!! I did this once, it was a disaster.  I also found Gluten hidden in the ingredients of one brand.
