Curry is a staple of Thai cuisine with so many traditional recipes changing from region to region. There are 3 main types of curry paste sold everywhere in Thailand: red, yellow and green differing in color and spiciness depending on the chilies used in the preparation. They can all be used in this duck recipe which combines the spices of curry, the sourness of pineapple and cherry tomatoes together with the sweet creaminess of coconut milk.
Preparation
Heat up a frying pan on a medium heat and place the duck breasts skin down, cook for approximately 5/7 minutes until it releases the fat.
