Add the curry paste and continue cooking, stirring to help mix the paste, for a few more minutes. Return the chicken to the wok when the mixture is smooth and the paste has released its aroma.

Pour in the "Thin" coconut milk and return to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. Add the basil and citrus leaves, pea eggplant, and chillies. Increase heat and boil again for 5 minutes.

Serve over rice.
