For a spicier curry, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a finely chopped chili pepper along with the lemongrass. If you don't have fresh lemongrass, you can use lemongrass paste, but the flavor will be slightly different. Start with 1 tablespoon of paste and adjust to taste. Chicken thighs work well in this recipe and tend to stay more moist than chicken breasts during the simmering process.
