Red curry stir-fried (Pad-Ped-Pad-Prik Gang)

One of my favorite stir-fried/curry dish.  The reason I like this one so much is because I still get the curry taste on the food without having to use the coconut milk.

You can either used red curry or chopped Thai chilli for spice or use both.  I preferred to use both because I like my food really spicy.  But if you can't handle too much spice, I suggest only use the small amount of curry or only a few chopped Thai chilli.

You can choose any meat of your choice in this dish: chicken, pork, beef, prawns, tofu or seafood.
