Thai green curry
Green chilli brings real heat, softened by coconut milk, while lemongrass, lime leaf, Thai basil and fish sauce make the sauce fragrant, salty and a little sweet. Keep alcohol modest, since it fans the chilli, and look for sharp acidity with citrus or herbal notes of its own, plus a touch of sweetness to tame the heat.
