• Grind together the curry paste ingredients in an electric blender, adding only as much water as necessary to form a smooth, thick paste.
• Combine the sliced chicken breast and the curry paste in a pan over high heat. Stir the chicken mixture until the chicken is nearly done.
• Add the coconut milk, chicken, stock, fish sauce, and palm sugar, and let simmer until the chicken is done.
• Add the eggplants and cook on very low heat until just done, about 2 minutes.
• Turn off the heat and add the basil leaves, kaffir lime leaves, and shredded chilies. Let sit a few minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Place a large, deep skillet over medium heat and coat with the oil. Saute the onion and green peppers for 3 minutes to soften. Split the piece of lemongrass down the middle and whack it with the flat side of a knife to open the flavor. Add the lemongrass, ginger, curry paste and lime leaves to the skillet and stir for 2 minutes. Pour in the coconut milk and chicken broth. Lay the chicken pieces in the mixture to poach; add a pinch of salt. Stir together and simmer over low heat for 10 to 15 minutes. Squeeze in the lime juice and shower with basil and cilantro; serve in dinner bowls with lime wedges.
• Heat the coriander, cumin seeds, and peppercorns in a small dry skillet for 2 minutes until fragrant. Put the seeds in a clean coffee grinder or spice mill and buzz the spices to a powder.
• Put the spice blend and remaining ingredients in a food processor, and pulse to combine. Pour in the water to help grind everything down into a paste.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a wok until it starts to shimmer. Add curry paste, garlic, and ginger; stir together and fry until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken breast slices, stirring until coated. Cook until just slightly pink in the center, 3 to 5 minutes.
• While chicken is cooking, place baby corn and bamboo shots in a small saucepan, cover with water, and place over high heat. Bring to a boil. Drain then cover with water again.
• Pour coconut milk into the wok. Bring to a slow simmer, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Drain corn and bamboo shoots and add in. Stir in fish sauce, palm sugar, and kaffir lime leaves. Bring back up to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in bell pepper strips and cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes.
• Remove curry from heat and stir in Thai basil.

Steps:

• Cut the tops and bottoms off the eggplant and cut into quarters.
• Thinly slice the chicken breast crosswise. Set aside.
• Prepare the green curry paste. In a large skillet over medium heat, toast the cumin seeds and coriander seeds until golden and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a pestle or bowl.
• Add the salt and pound with a mortar until the spices are broken up. Continue pounding as you add the white peppercorns, lemongrass, kaffir lime peel, galangal, garlic, Thai green chilis, cilantro stems, Thai basil, kaffir leaves, shallots, and shrimp paste, until a coarse paste forms.
• Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons of green curry paste, and 3 tablespoons of basil oil (if using).
• Add a splash of the coconut milk, stirring until it forms a paste.
• Add the sliced chicken breast, the rest of the coconut milk, and the eggplant.
• Season with the fish sauce and sugar. Increase the heat to medium high and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cook for 2-3 minutes.
• Stir in the bamboo shoots, kaffir leaves, and red bell pepper, cooking for 3-4 minutes until bell peppers have slightly softened.
• Add the Thai basil. Remove the curry from the heat and serve with white rice.
• Enjoy!
