Notes

Different brands of red curry paste will vary greatly in their level of heat and flavor. Add more curry paste to your recipe a 1/2 tbsp at a time until you reach your desired level of curry flavor and heat. 
This is a great coconut curry for weeknight dinners that heats well for leftovers.
Omit the jalapeno if you are sensitive to spicy flavors.
