What aspect of curries sets off the reflux!Is it the chilli!I could give you heaps of recipes for Thai food, but they almost all include chilli.

use one of Davidt4's excellent recipes and reduce the chilli and use more ginger(great for a wonky tummy) its really that simple for those with poor digestion eat more rice and less curry.

I have only recenlty been diagnosed with this .Drs thought I had asthma but it is "silent" reflux.The research I have done says no spicy food and curry ( like Indian ) sets me off big time.I do seem to manage small amounts of chilli fine though.I could always just use less chilliin the recipes so would appreciate any you can share please.

That's good advice.If you cut down the chilli you need to re-balance the flavours with something hot, and ginger will do that, or black pepper.

Oh YUM.Thank you so much.we do not use any wine so does it matter if I leave that out and what are "wood ears" please! Are they a kind of mushroom! I have never heard of them.

Shaoxing wineis Chinese cooking wine and I can't think of a non-alcoholic substitute.I suppose you could leave it out, but the trouble with playing around with recipes like these is that flavours go out of balance and before you know it they taste all wrong.
Wood ears are a shelf fungus, also called cloud ears, tree ears, black fungus, available dried or fresh in Chinese food markets.They don't have a lot of taste but have a great meaty texture.
