Thai yellow chicken curry

Woolworths is committed to sustainability via our good business journey. Seasonal (and other) products might not always be in stock.

Woolworths' new range of Asian-inspired pastes has all the classics: Thai green, yellow and red paste and a punchy hot-and-sour paste that makes the best tom yum soup. The best thing about these pastes is you just need to add your favourite protein and veg and top it with coconut milk and stock. Serve with noodles or rice and dinner is ready in under 30 minutes! If you're a busy home cook, these pastes are a lifesaver.
