Gaeng Kari Gai is the curry you order when you want something a little milder than its red and green cousins, but no less satisfying. Turmeric gives it that beautiful golden colour, while the coconut milk turns it silky and rich, with soft chunks of potato soaking up all that flavour.
This is proper Thai takeaway comfort food, made simple enough for a weeknight. It leans more toward the sweet and mellow end of the curry spectrum, which makes it a lovely one to cook for the family, including those who aren't so keen on chilli heat.
Serve it in big bowls with plenty of steamed jasmine rice to mop up the sauce, and you've got yourself a proper Thai restaurant feed at home.
