Thai Green Curry

I love Thai food. Probably you have noticed it from my postings already. I have been planning for making Thai green curry for the past 1 month. Somehow every time I miss one or another ingredients or when I managed to do it,  the light was not good enough to make the shoot. Finally I made it today and the light was good. This curry is very simple and quite flavorful. My kids love it
