*300ml coconut milk is almost a whole can, usually about 400ml, so you can put it in if you like coconut milk with a strong flavor, but to avoid the soup from being too thin, it is recommended to simmer it for a while on medium heat. *The brand of red curry paste has different concentrations and different saltiness. The one I bought is relatively thick and salty, so 2 tablespoons are enough, and there is no need to add salt at all, so when you make it, it is recommended to taste it in advance Taste the taste of curry paste and then increase or decrease appropriately. *Actually, it’s best to add some fresh lemongrass to make Thai curry, but it’s not so easy to find (at least it’s harder in ordinary supermarkets), so I didn’t include today’s abbreviated version. If possible, I suggest you put one , The taste will be different. *Red oil is actually chili oil. It won't become spicy just to add color. You can leave it if you don't like it or don't have it.
