Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback! I’ve used yellow curry paste many times but never the red. 3 tablespoons of the curry paste plus a teaspoon of crushed red pepper sounds like it will be blazing hot! I’ll start with half and go from there. Thank you again!

Have you used Thai red curry paste before? I love spicy food, but I am especially sensitive to Thai chilies. I would use half of the recommended amount at first, and you can always add more. The coconut milk and stock will temper the heat, but I find it best to adjust spice to your and your guests' level.
