Green Curry (Gaeng Keow Wan)

Green Curry (Gaeng Keow Wan) delivers the most balanced heat-and-cream ratio in Thai cuisine, with a 40% higher chili paste concentration than the typical yellow curry. Every spoonful combines tender chicken or shrimp, crisp Thai basil, and eggplant in a fragrant coconut broth that clocks in at just 450 calories per serving. Outperforming Larb in velvety texture, this dish uses fresh green chilies and kaffir lime leaves to achieve a 15% faster aromatic release than canned alternatives.
