Basiccurry Recipes

Steps:

• Saute the onions for a few minutes until lightly browned.
• Add the garlic and ginger and fry for a few more minutes. Add the curry powder.
• Add the lemon juice with the stock and coconut milk.
• Add the tofu.
• Bring to the boil and then simmer gently uncovered for about 30 minutes or until the sauce has thickened.
• Serve over basmati rice.

Steps:

• Heat oil and margarine in a small skillet or wok over medium high heat. Add onion and saute until very brown, 10 to 15 minutes. (Note: This is an important step; if onion is not cooked well, sauce will taste funny.)
• Add ginger and garlic to onion and saute for an additional 2 minutes. Process onion/ginger/garlic mixture in food processor until smooth. Do not rinse food processor.
• Place onion mixture in a large saucepan. Stir in the cinnamon, black pepper, coriander, cumin, turmeric and cayenne pepper and cook over low heat until mixture is thick and has the consistency of a paste.
• Puree tomatoes, chile peppers and cilantro in food processor until smooth. Add to onion mixture and stir well over low heat, cooking off moisture from tomatoes and cilantro. Add yogurt a little bit at a time, stirring constantly to avoid curdling.
• Blend the whole mixture in food processor to puree it (for a very smooth sauce). Return to saucepan, add water and increase heat to high; bring sauce to a rolling boil. Cover saucepan and boil for 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat and simmer until desired consistency is reached.
• To serve with meat, cook the meat first separately, then simmer for 5 to 10 minutes in the sauce before serving over rice or with bread. To serve with vegetables, steam raw veggies first 4 to 5 minutes, then simmer for 5 to 10 minutes in the sauce before serving.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat.
• Add onion, garlic and salt; cook, stirring, until softened, 7 minutes.
• Add curry powder and cook, stirring, 1 minute.
• Stir in coconut milk, tomatoes, and tomato paste; cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 10 minutes.
• Add chicken and simmer until cooked through, 6 minutes.
• Turn off heat.
• Add the spinach and stir until wilted, 1 minute.
• Serve hot over rice.

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot or dutch oven and cover with well-salted water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer, cover and let the potatoes cook until fork tender-about 12 minutes. Once cooked, drain the potatoes and set them aside.
• Return the pot to the stove and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Add onion and garlic and sauté over medium heat until onion is tender and starts to turn translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
• Add cumin, cayenne, curry powder, salt, pepper and ginger. Stir to combine before adding tomatoes, chickpeas, and peas.
• Increase heat to medium-high and stir in the coconut milk. Bring to a simmer before adding the potatoes back to the pot. Reduce heat to low and cook everything together for 3-5 minutes before serving.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large shallow pan. Throw in onions and cook for 10 mins, or until soft. Tip in the garlic and ginger, then cook for a further 2 mins, watching the garlic doesn't burn. Stir in curry paste and cook for another min.
• Now pour in 1 litre of cold water, the tomatoes and 1 tsp salt. Give it a good stir and bring to the boil. Cook the sauce over a high heat for about 10 mins, or until the liquid has reduced by a third. Will keep for 1 week in the fridge or freeze for up to 2 months.
