For a medium curry, increase to 3 tablespoons of curry paste. Kaffir Lime leaves are available from supermarkets in the fresh fruit and veg section. There are also bottled kaffir lime leaves in the Asian section of Woolworths and Coles that you could try if you can’t find the fresh ones.This recipe is suitable to freeze for up to 8 weeks.To make this recipe on the stovetop, cook in a large saucepan with the lid on low heat for 3 hours, checking every hour. If cooking on the stovetop, you will need more liquid. Generally about ½ to 1 cup extra of either water or coconut milk should do the trick. However, do keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn’t dry out and burn. -- source link
