Cut the chicken into large cubes, then chop the eggplant and red capia pepper.
Fry the green curry paste in vegetable oil for 2 minutes, until aromatic.
Add half the coconut milk and boil the sauce for 4 minutes, until glossy.
Add the chicken, eggplant, fish sauce, and brown sugar.
Keep the curry at a gentle simmer for 18 minutes, until the chicken cooks through.
Add the red capia pepper and remaining coconut milk, then cook for 4 more minutes.
Stir in the basil and lime juice, then serve with rice.
💡 Tip: If you cannot find Thai eggplant, cut small eggplant into large cubes; slicing it too finely makes it melt into the sauce and lose texture.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve gaeng keow wan gai hot with jasmine rice, lime, and optional cucumber slices.
