How to Make Jamaican curry

  • Grind the green onions, all spices, thyme, ginger, garlic, and chillies to a smooth paste.
  • Add some of the coconut milk if you need to.
  • Put half of the coconut milk in a pan and boil it until it is reduced by about half.
  • Add the ground paste and cook over medium-high heat, stirring until the raw smell is gone.
  • Add the remaining coconut milk and bring to a boil.
  • Add chicken and salt and bring to a boil again, stirring constantly.
  • Reduce heat and simmer uncovered until the chicken is tender and the sauce is at the desired thickness.
  • It should not be too thin but not too thick either.
  • Stir in the lime juice and remove from heat.
  • Serve over plain white rice.
