Thai Green Curry for the Crockpot image

The fresh lemon grass is the key ingredient in this dish. You can find it in sometimes with the fresh herbs or at a farmers' market. The meal just is lacking something if you use dried lemon grass or omit it. Oh.. do not consume the lemon grass. Think it as bay leaf.
