Chef's Notes
This tropical curry is incredibly versatile! For extra protein, try adding tofu or shrimp. If you prefer it spicier, add a chopped chili pepper with the garlic and ginger.
The pineapple adds a wonderful sweetness that balances the spices beautifully, but you could substitute mango if you prefer.
