Best red or green thai curry


"Note: ===== * (dried kaffir lime leaves are fine; these are available in packages on the bottom -- usually dusty -- shelf of the Asian market; they look like dried, curled-up leaves)

You can add other things (holy basil, fish sauce, chopped hot Thai chiles, lemon grass, galanga, shrimp paste, etc.)."
