I hunted high and low, and none of the English food shops have stocked it for ages. At length, yesterday, I found some. Wahayyyy ! I'm off to Mercadona to buy some humumgus giant prawns and I'm going to make a Thai Green King Prawn Curry for dinner tonight !
Any takers?

You should think of making your own paste. I do it all the time and it is really easy. This is a recipe that I found online ages ago . . .
THAI GREEN CHICKEN CURRY
approx 750 gms chicken thigh or breast fillets
200 gms green beans
1 cup (250 mls) coconut cream
Green Curry Paste:
3 small fresh green chillies, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
3 spring onions, chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh lemon grass
1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander leaves
2 tblspns oil
2 tblspns water
1 teaspoon shrimp paste
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
Put all ingredients for green curry paste into blender and process until smooth or if you don't have a blender use the old fashioned way with mortar and pestle.
Cut chicken into thin strips. Chop the beans into lengthy strips. Cook the green curry paste in pan or wok, stirring for about 3 or so minutes until it is you can smell the spices and herbs.
Add the chicken and beans to the pan and cook, stirring for about 5 minutes or until the chicken is just cooked through. Add the coconut cream, stir in and simmer, uncovered for about 3 to 5 minutes or until dish slightly thickens.
This recipe is best made just before serving.
