Mouthwatering, but hot & spicy: the green Thai curry – Kaeng khiew wan.
The green Thai coconut curry is considered as the hottest Thai curry,
except the hellish curries from South Thailand
and the reason for this are the fresh green Thai chilli used for the curry paste.
The translation for “Gaeng khiew wan” is like “green, sweet curry”.
