coconut milk

🥗Healthier: light coconut milk

prawns

🥗Healthier: chicken breast

💰Cheaper: tofu

Tofu is a plant-based alternative that is more affordable.

curry paste

🥗Healthier: homemade curry paste

💰Cheaper: curry powder

Curry powder is often less expensive and easier to find.

fish sauce

🥗Healthier: soy sauce

💰Cheaper: salt

Soy sauce provides umami flavor at a lower cost.

Heat the oil in a wok or saucepan over medium-high heat.

Add the curry paste and cook, stirring, for half a minute or until fragrant.

Stir through the curry powder.

Add the chicken and stir-fry for a minute or so.

Add the coconut milk and chicken stock. Simmer for 5 minutes.

Add the prawns and fish balls (if using), along with the tofu puffs. Simmer for another few minutes or until the prawns are cooked.
