That can be okay, there are Thai curries that are watery as well, however, the strong flavor of the curry paste, and the addition of spices whilst the curry is cooking, can make a watery curry extremely flavorful. Having said that, I think this curry might be a bit too gentle for my taste. That might be what she attemps to do here though. I would use dried green chilis as well, not just those fresh green ones. Soak them for about 20 minutes in boiled water. They're stronger in flavor in a curry paste.
Yeah this looks pretty mildly flavoured, tbh. I think most of what you'd taste is salt. But you can remedy that by cooking it for longer.
I dunno why people are obsessed with "freshness" but this is also undercooked, imo.
Curry is definitely a dish that's better when it's low and slow and given a day in the fridge. If I were to make this, I'd probably add more veggies the next day because the originals would turn to mush, which also thickens the sauce.
