Cooking Steps

Cook the Rice
1

a) Boil a full kettle.

b) Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat.

c) Add the rice and cook for 10-12 mins.

d) Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

Bring on the Flavour
2

a) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

b) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on medium-high heat.

c) Once hot, add the green Thai style paste and garlic. Stir-fry until fragrant, 30 secs.

d) Stir in the coconut milk, chicken stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount).

Poach the Chicken
3

a) Stir in the chicken and bring to the boil, then lower the heat.

b) Simmer until the chicken is cooked and the sauce has thickened, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Prep the Garnishes
4

a) Meanwhile, halve the chilli lengthways, deseed, then thinly slice (see ingredients for amount).

b) Zest and halve the lime.

c) Trim and thinly slice the spring onion.

Add the Spinach
5

a) Once the chicken is cooked and the sauce has thickened, add the spinach to the curry a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.

b) Squeeze in some lime juice. Add a splash of water if it's a little thick.

c) Taste and season with salt, pepper and more lime juice if needed, then remove from the heat.

Finish and Serve
6

a) When everything's ready, fluff up the rice with a fork and stir through the lime zest.

b) Share the zesty rice between your bowls and spoon over the chicken curry.

c) Sprinkle over the chilli (use less if you'd prefer things milder) and spring onion to finish.

d) Cut any remaining lime into wedges and serve alongside for squeezing over.

Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Sept 2026
  • Flavour: The curry has a good balance of coconut, lime and spice when all the ingredients come together, though some find it milder than expected and a little lacking in depth.
  • Ease of prep: Very quick and straightforward to make, with minimal prep and a simple one-pan method that suits busy evenings.
  • Suggestions: Use only half the spice mix if you prefer a milder heat, and add the lime juice gradually to taste as too much can make the sauce sharp or cause the coconut milk to split. Adding a splash of extra water or coconut milk helps if the sauce reduces too quickly during simmering.
  • Portions: The rice portion is generous, but some felt there was not quite enough chicken or sauce relative to the rice, particularly when cooking for three or more people.
