Notes

Ensure your green curry paste is sugar-free to keep this dish keto-friendly.
If you prefer a thicker curry, let it simmer for a few additional minutes to reduce the liquid.
For added texture, top with chopped nuts like cashews or macadamias, keeping in mind this will alter the nutritional information.
