Jungle curry is a popular Thai curry. Jungle curry is spicy, with no coconut milk. You can make pork or chicken jungle curry with this easy recipe.
It tastes different because it’s now not as “creamy” and sweet because there is no coconut milk introduced within the curry, and subsequently the spices flavor extra mentioned, that is a terrific issue is my culinary dictionary.
As coconuts are not observed within the location, it carries no coconut milk. It changed into initially prepared with wild boars observed inside the jungle. I made this jungle curry with beef. If you may’t consume beef, experience loose to alternative with bird. The curry is going extremely nicely with rice. I virtually enjoyed it.
