Thai red curry paste packs a handful of intense, aromatic ingredients, so it allows you to achieve complex flavor with just a few spoonfuls. Some brands are spicier than others, so if you’re sensitive to chili heat, use the lesser amount; you can stir in a little more curry paste at the end, if desired. Serve the shredded pork over steamed jasmine rice, mounded onto buns with quick-pickled vegetables.

Soooo easy. Soooo good!
Quickly has become a family favorite. I’ve started making it with cubed chuck roast as well. Hard to say whether I prefer beef or pork in the recipe, but it’s an excellent recipe regardless.

Great Flavor
Working through all the shredded pork options in the Cookish cookbook. I love the flavors in this recipe. Used lemongrass paste, cooked for an hour and a half with the lid off and it may have been a bit too long, the meat was a little crisp. Served over rice with pickled red onions and jalapenos.

Insta pot?
If I used an insta pot for this how would the coconut milk do under pressure?
