INDIAN GREEN CURRY

A variation on a Thai green curry, this is a spicy dish that my boyfriend said 'tastes as good as a take-away.' Best served with rice, naan, and mango chutney.

1 tablespoon butter

Melt butter over medium heat in a large wok; pour in olive oil. Add chile peppers, garlic, peppercorns, cardamom pods, cinnamon, turmeric, and cumin.
