  Method<\/strong><\/p>\n

  Melt oil in a saucepan over medium heat and fry off paste until fragrant, stirring constantly to avoid it sticking to the base. Add the chicken and mushrooms and stir to brown and coat in spices.<\/p>\n

  Add carrots (plus the cooking water from steaming them – this sweetens the curry and adds moisture), beans and coconut cream. Simmer on a low heat for a minimum of 30 mins. Remove from heat and stir through basil and lime oil.<\/p>\n

  Serve with steamed Jasmine rice.<\/p>\n

  You could use the juice and zest of a fresh lime instead of lime oil<\/p>\n

  Mum was home later than expected so the curry was simmering for about an hour, but would have been ready after half an hour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

  Last night I got to\u00a0don my non-GAPS chefs hat and make a dish from scratch with absolutely no food intolerance restrictions (other than gluten-free for mum, but in this day and age – well at least in this household – that barely counts as a restriction).<\/p>\n

  This delicious curry was the result. It was ready in less than half an hour, and turned out to be quite allergen-friendly despite the fact that it didn’t ‘have to’ be. That’s the advantage of real food cooking. Most dishes are naturally free of common allergens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3232,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[42,79,85,39,3,80,73,84,35,83],"tags":[63,47,54,43,21,25,44,23,53,24],"class_list":["post-901","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chemical-free-living","category-dairy-free-recipes","category-egg-free-recipes","category-essential-oils","category-genuine-reads-for-genuine-people","category-gluten-free-recipes","category-main-meals","category-nut-free-recipes","category-real-food","category-refined-sugar-free-recipes","tag-anti-inflammatory","tag-coconut","tag-egg-free","tag-essential-oils","tag-gluten-free","tag-grain-free","tag-nut-free","tag-refined-sugar-free","tag-twenty8","tag-whole-foods"],"yoast_head":"\n
