Fertility & Maternity Recipes

I've been blogging about herbs and cooking ingredients that boost fertility, wouldn't it be great if we can combine them all into one delicious cooking paste? It turns out Thai green curry paste is just what we need, it has lemon grass, garlic, ginger, chillies, coriander. That's almost everything I've talked about so far. You can make a load of this paste and store it in a glass jar in your fridge for about two weeks or kept in freezer in small portions.

Tips: You can make Thai Red Curry Paste by replacing green chillies with red chillies.
