Product Rating (15):
A household favourite- made a vegan version for guests with "This Isn't Chicken". Absolutely delicious, have restocked several times.
Deliciously tangy and rich in flavour. I can't always eat meat based Thai curries due to allergies to fish sauce, so this was a treat to be able to prepare this at home o simply with vegan fish sauce. I'm going to stock up because I'm going to be craving this all winter!
It's great to hear you enjoyed this perfectly flavourful Panang curry!
Amazing flavours...who needs to call the takeaway when you have this!! Brilliant
Wow! This looks like a fantastically fragrant and delicious meal!
I wonder if this is better made with meat. As I'm vegetarian we made it with tofu as suggested, and found it a little bit bland. A bit of a disappointment, so I wouldn't order this one again. It is the first kit that hasn't quite lived up to expectations though.
We're really sorry to hear this wasn't one of your favourites! I have forwarded your feedback on to the recipe developers and we will take another look at the vegetarian option for this recipe!
The curry was really tasty - the mango salad was unusual (with the addition of soy/fish sauce), but worked really well. Will be making this one again
It looks great, we're really pleased to hear how much you enjoyed it! Happy spicing!
Made this with baked tofu, such a rich, deep flavour, absolutely delicious. Will definitely buy again.
Great job adapting the recipe to make a vegan version, Maura - using baked tofu sounds like a delicious idea!
Would be a 6 if I could loved this one. Having the pork loin thin was lovely
Thanks for your lovely feedback, Charles - we're so happy to hear how much you enjoyed this dish!
Curry was delicious - rich and spicy (I think the spice rating probably needs reviewing - hotter than expected). Slightly disappointed with the mango salad spices which seemed an odd accompaniment. But overall, a very tasty dish.
Thanks for your feedback, Lauren - we're happy to hear that you enjoyed the dish overall and found the curry to be delicious!
I’m cheating, this panang curry and cucumber kerabu from your curry legends book. This is the leftover from yesterday which after today’s 15 mile lockdown walk in the cold is spot on. Always tastes better on day 2
YUM this looks incredible, when spices are given a bit of extra time to work their magic something amazing happens!
Made this as a mid week dinner. So easy to make and was honestly restaurant quality. I’ve made my own Thai curry pastes from scratch before but I still recon this was better. Got 5/5 from hubby too!
We're so pleased to hear this was enjoyed so much! Everything looks delicious- it's two thumbs up from us!
It was so good I don’t need to go to a restaurant anymore when I can do it even better :)
That's what we like to hear!
My first time trying this kit and a little worried as my wife lived in Penang as a child. I needn't of been concerned, it was very tasty and she thoroughly enjoyed it. I would definitely make this again, highly rated!
Praise indeed! Really pleased!
Sweet and sour mid-week delight! We love using Easy Kits for our mid-week dinners as they are easy and fun to make, very satisfying to eat and give you an opportunity to discuss latest affairs over cooking. Kaffir lime leaf, galangal, peanuts create a rich thick sauce, which is lightened by the flavours of fresh lime, chilli and basil. The delicious flavours can take you to any part of the world you may desire to visit.
Wow this looks incredible- so fresh and fragrant! Glad you really enjoyed this recipe and we look forward to seeing which flavours of the world you decide to explore next time!
