To use Lobo Green Curry Paste 50 g, start with the paste and coconut milk, cook the meat, then add water, vegetables and herbs. Lobo’s published method uses 240 ml coconut milk, 250 g meat and 240 ml water for two servings. The packet supplies the paste; the other ingredients are separate purchases.

What ingredients do you need for Lobo green curry?

  • One 50 g Green Curry Paste packet.
  • 240 ml coconut milk, 250 g sliced beef or chicken and 240 ml water.
  • Eggplant, basil, makrut lime leaves and chilli; fish sauce to taste.

How to cook with Lobo Green Curry Paste 50 g

  1. Heat the coconut milk with the paste.
  2. Add the meat and cook it through.
  3. Pour in the water and bring the curry to a boil.
  4. Add the vegetables and herbs as the packet directs; finish with fish sauce to taste.

Lobo describes the packet as making two servings. Use your current packet if its directions differ. The vegetable quantities are not fixed in the published outline.

Two common mix-ups

The listed coconut milk and water are separate quantities—not 240 ml of liquid in total. Also, this is a 50 g green-curry method; another curry style or packet size may need different ingredients.

The paste contains shrimp. Lobo also lists possible fish, crab and mollusc cross-contact. Replacing the meat with vegetables does not make the paste vegetarian or remove its shrimp ingredient.
