I spotted a really delicious looking Thai Red curry & Squash recipe on one of my favourite twitter pages @DBNHealth this week. Since i am not the biggest fan of hot food I decided to put my own spin on it and make a slightly milder, Green curry version.
For those that are interested the original recipe can be found at:

Here's my version...enjoy :)
