This is a dish that is incredibly easy and quick to prepare. If you have a bag of frozen seafood in the freezer the whole dish can come together in the time it takes to cook the rice. Talking of rice, I find myself increasingly turning to black rice, healthier than white rice and an interesting texture. My favourite at the moment is Gallo Venere black rice which can be found in most supermarkets, and I certainly prefer it over supermarket own brands. Portion sizes are always subjective, but this would feed three people at my table!

Ingredients. One packet of My Thai Curry green curry paste. You can use either the Mild, Bangkok or Southern green curry pastes depending on the heat levels you prefer.
Around 500 g fresh or frozen seafood. A few chillies, medium mild or hot depending on your taste.
1 can of coconut milk, as always the choice of coconut milk used is important, and some coriander or parsley to garnish.
Rice of your choice.

ingredients for Mixed seafood in Thai green curry paste black rice

If using frozen seafood it can be defrosted quickly under running water. Start cooking the rice.
Empty the coconut milk into the pan and add the green curry paste.

Bring to a simmer whilst stirring.

Add the seafood and sliced chilis to the pan and cook, no more than five minutes as seafood becomes rubbery if overcooked.

After cooking this dish can any remaining portions be frozen

It can. It’s OK to freeze it once. In terms of taste, reheated seafood can be somewhat chewy.

This is such a simple to put together recipe, but the flavor! Wow! I’ve made this twice now. The use of Black Rice really does impart a flavor and texture to the dish that white rice can’t match. The flavor of the dish was even better the following day. So tasty! I used the Bangkok Style Green Curry. Just the right amount of heat. Great recipe! Thank you.

The green Thai paste made a delicious hot chicken curry which we thoroughly enjoyed. I have made my own pastes in the past but sometimes struggle for time. This is by far the best paste we have purchased and cannot wait to create the seafood recipe with black rice.

My wife and I had a tai in London about 20 tears ago and it was the best we had ever had, unfortunately the restaurant is not there anymore.
So our quest started to find another restaurant as good but alas nothing matches up to what we ate back then 20 years ago.
A friend introduced me to My tai curry and I have to say it’s as good if not better tai green curry we ate 20 years ago , we don’t need to eat out anymore, the taste and flavours are second to none.

Crying Tiger, The Makeover!

June 19, 2025

Crying Tiger beef has long been one of our favourite recipes especially during the summer months when alfresco dining and barbecues abound. Recently I have started to take the dish beyond the original recipe, especially if I am cooking for a group of people. I love Crying Tiger whichever way it is prepared, but there is no doubt that this method of preparation takes it to a different level. The reason for this is that the state is cooked using the Reverse Sear method. This results in a perfec...

Have you ever tasted something so delicious that it feels like a culinary revelation? That's exactly how it feels to bite into a perfectly cooked beef short rib. I’m deeply in love with them, the rich slow cooked meat practically falls off the bone, leaving you craving for more. No wonder I’ve fallen head over heels for this underrated cut of meat. Gone are the days when you had to visit a specialty butcher to get your hands on beef short ribs as well, thanks to supermarkets like Sainsbury's ...

My first confession is that that I never thought I would be sitting here writing a recipe for a Thai Curry pie, but times change and we change with them or stagnate. My interest was sparked on my first trip back to Bangkok after the pandemic, chicken curry puffs have long been a popular Thai snack but savoury pies, usually steak and kidney, were very much something that was restricted to the Bangkok expat pub scene. All that had changed, bake shops were springing up outside the traditional to...
