Sometimes we don’t want to spend a lot of time on cooking. This recipe is perfect for Thai food lovers, who are busy with work all day long and family after work, to have a nice dish, real Thai food dish with simply cooking.

Panang curry is another common, well-known and popular dish among Thai food. The texture of this dish is pretty much like the butter chicken in Indian food - chicken in creamy thick sauce but Panang is less rich. Panang curry has a very nice scent of the chopped kaffir leaves. The scent of kaffir leaves is really pronouncing a real Thai food.

I have attached a simple salad recipe below which has an oriental flavour and good with this curry.
