sorry quick question
what can you use instead of lemongrass?
I would just leave it out. Happy batching
Can you use diced stewing steak instead of shin? Don’t recall seeing it in my local supermarket.
Yes you can! Stewing steak will work fine. Hope that helps!
If I prepare all ingredients fresh – can I then freeze it for later use minus the coconut milk?
Yes you can although browning the meat will help add extra flavour but it isn’t essential. Hope that helps!
