INSTRUCTIONS

Yield: 1 Cup (8 Fluid Ounces)
Don't let the colour fool you, a green curry can be
devastatingly hot if prepared the traditional way.
For less heat, discard the chilli seeds.
Remove the stems and roughly chop the chillies.  Put
into an electric blender with all of the other
ingredients and blend to a smooth paste.  Add a Tbls
of extra oil or a little water, if necessary, to
facilitate blending and store as you would the red
curry paste.
