GREEN CURRY EGG

(Serves 2-3)

This is a very simple recipe, very easy to put together but an absolute hit. This is another way of enriching the insipid quick fix egg curry. The cooking time is under fifteen minutes so this is a must try. If you don’t have coconut milk you can use two tablespoons of scraped coconut, mixed with four tablespoons of cream instead.
