Lacinato kale ups the green in this green curry dish, providing a delightful textural contrast to the tender rice noodles.

The green curry paste we have is super hot so I halved the amount listed, but otherwise stayed true to the recipe. Hubby was dubious about the kale but in the end he said it was good and we should have this again. Win/win!

Pretty straight forward curry recipe; I did use several tablespoons of the green curry paste I had on hand, as it was nearing the end of the jar and needed to be used up, and I knew it was a mild tasting paste. I added a serrano chili for heat and put siracha at the table for my chili head husband. Came together quickly and makes a lot!

I made this dish as the recipe calls for and found it pretty underwhelming. I would double up on the spices because I couldn't even taste the curry or really any flavors.

This was good. I subbed red curry. I thought it needed more salt. I also felt there was too much sauce. Next time I'd cut the sauce in half.

My husband and I were fans of this dish! I made it exactly as written except that I omitted the cilantro because I did not have any on hand. Yummy dinner!
