Anonymous: Along with some rice and some vegetables side dishes, this should make 4 servings though you could easily increase the chicken to 1 1/2 pounds for larger portions.

Someone suggested using lemon zest instead of kaffir lime leaves.

Grated lime zest is better, or even freshly squeezed lime juice.

And yes, if you do find kaffir lime leaves, freeze them.

Hey, i make thai curries all the time – you can get kaffir lime leaves [the freeze dried ones which need soaking in water before cooking with them, and removing before eating] at Tesco, they usually come in the asian specialty section, they have lots of things!

I found some kaffir lime leaves this weekend. Thanks for the tip about freeing them Kalyn.

That looks really delicious, and like it would make my taste buds tingle in the best way possible. Kalyn, thanks for the tip about freezing kafir limes leaves — I tend to let mine go bad in the refrigerator. Never again!

I do love Thai curries, but I confess that I buy the paste in a jar, so I’m impressed that you are making your own. My stepsister sends me kaffir lime leaves from California and I freeze them. So if you order some, you can keep them good that way.

Kevin – kaffir lime leaves are relatively common in TO. If you go to one of the markets around Spadina and Dundas you will have no troubles. I work at Dundas and University so I often take a little field trip over.
