Real fish sauce is the savory spine of the whole pot, and jasmine rice with genuine fragrance makes the bowl worth eating. Fry the curry paste in the thick coconut cream until the oil splits and the paste smells toasted, and get that done before any thin liquid goes in; that early fry is where the flavor is built.

Can you make Thai Green Curry in an air fryer? — Yes, with an insert
Not on its own — an air fryer can’t hold a pool of liquid. You can simmer it in an oven-safe dish or a silicone insert made to fit the basket, but the broth won’t reduce or brown the way it does on the stove, and that insert comes out scorching, so use oven mitts. For real depth, a pot on the stove wins.
Can you freeze Thai Green Curry? — Yes
Yes — it freezes well. Cool it fully, portion into airtight containers, and it keeps a few months; thaw in the fridge and reheat gently.
Can you make Thai Green Curry ahead of time? — Yes
Yes — it holds well and often tastes better the next day. Make it ahead and reheat gently before serving.
Is Thai Green Curry gluten-free? — Yes
Yes — nothing in this recipe as written contains gluten. As always, glance at the labels on any packaged items (broth, sauces, chocolate), since brands vary.
Is Thai Green Curry vegan? — No
No — it contains meat, so it isn’t vegetarian or vegan.
