I do love spicy food but this dish was so freakin' hot that my head and neck(!) were sweating. Maybe I had a death wish or something that day but I ate my portion because despite the heat, it was really tasty. DB really loves me because he ate his portion although I knew he didn't want to partake in this masochistic act. Note to self: use thai green curry paste sparingly. The recipe called for 2-3 TB and I used 2 1/2. Next time, I'll use 1 1/2. In this recipe I added red potatoes, green beans, carrots, cilantro, chicken and eggplants from the garden. Not posting this recipe for said reason. I'm not giving up on this dish. I will find a recipe that works because I love the flavors.

I found this through your other blog and couldn't help but laugh like crazy when I read this. It reminded me of 14 years ago of one of my first experiences having Thai food with friends and we decided to get the shrimp hot pot soup...well it was so hot no one except me would eat it and I literally turned bright red according to my friends and had tears running down my face, but I kept eating because what I could taste was so good.
