The secrets to making a GREAT curry using store bought curry paste are: saute the paste with onion, garlic and chilli, simmer the sauce with kaffir lime leaves (KEY TIP!) and using fish sauce for seasoning. This curry is made using mango puree which is a miracle way to make a thick saucy curry but with 1/3 less calories than just using coconut milk (mangoes have 1/5th of the calories of coconut milk!). Read more in Note 2. If you don't have mangoes, you can make this with just coconut milk which is just as tasty but has more calories - see Note 3.

Add garlic, ginger, chilli (if using) and onion and saute until the onion is starting to soften.
Add chicken and cook until white all over but still raw inside.
Add curry paste and saute for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add coconut milk and chicken broth. Bring to simmer, stirring to dissolve the curry paste into the liquid. Then add the mango, fish sauce and kaffir lime leaves.
Turn heat down to medium and simmer for 12 - 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thickened. Adjust saltiness using fish sauce.
Serve over jasmine rice, garnished with coriander/cilantro, wedges of lime and slices of red chilli, if desired.
