Want to make it yours? Toss in a handful of fresh spinach while it’s heating—it wilts down and adds extra nutrients. Or squeeze a lime wedge over the top before eating to wake up the flavours. If you’re feeling fancy (and have a spare two minutes), stir in a spoonful of Thai fish sauce for that umami depth. Your taste buds will think you ordered delivery from a real restaurant.

One warning: don’t overheat it. Trust me, I’ve done it. The coconut milk can split if you nuke it too long, leaving you with a greasy layer on top. Follow the packet instructions, or better yet, heat it gently in a pan. A little patience pays off with a silky, cohesive sauce.
The Verdict (Spoiler: It’s Good)
Is Marks and Spencer Thai Green Curry as good as a handmade curry from a top-notch Thai joint in London? No. Of course not. But is it the best ready meal you’ll eat on a random Tuesday when you’re too tired to chop an onion? Absolutely yes. It’s reliable, tasty, and doesn’t demand your soul in preparation time.
So next time you’re in M&S and you see that little green tray, grab it. Don’t overthink it. Pair it with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc (yes, it works) and a side of guilt-free laziness. You deserve a decent meal, even when you’re not trying. And hey, if anyone judges you for eating ready meals, just tell them it’s M&S. That’s basically a Michelin star, right?
