“Red Curry” or as we say in Thai "Kaeng Phet," is a typical Thai curry that is common in the central region of Thailand. Its delicious taste comes from the red chili peppers, galangal, and lemongrass, and it is known for its bright red color and spicy, aromatic flavor. Traditionally, the curry is simmered with vegetables, spices, coconut milk, and a protein such as chicken or tofu. In this recipe we will cook a simple red curry dish which uses bamboo shoots, red bell peppers, and shrimp.
