One of my favorite Thai takeout meals is Yellow Curry over rice. I was craving some and didn’t want to spend all that money using Ubereats or DoorDash, so I made my own. It tastes better than the restaurants I’ve been to or ordered from.

Plus, it doesn’t have all the sugar they add to it. Here is my Coconut Chickpea Yellow Curry. I put it over some Basmati Rice, and it was so delish! Make it, and let us know what you think in the comments below.
