Siamese Chicken Curry Recipes

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil over medium heat in a large saucepan. Saute onion and garlic in the hot oil until garlic begins to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add potatoes, carrots, curry paste, ginger, fish sauce, chile paste, and coriander; stir until evenly coated and well mixed.
• Stir coconut milk and 1/2 cup water into the saucepan. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in chicken, zucchini, and bell pepper. Continue to simmer, covered, until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes more.
• Dissolve cornstarch in remaining 1/2 cup water in a small bowl; stir into the simmering mixture. Uncover, raise heat to high, and bring to a boil. Continue to boil for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in cilantro and lime juice just prior to serving.

Steps:

• For the Asian slaw: Combine sugar, lime juice, soy sauce, garlic, salt, sesame oil, carrots and cabbage in a medium bowl. Mix well, cover and refrigerate overnight.
• For the sausage: Combine coconut milk, cilantro, lime juice, salt, curry powder, garlic, cayenne and white pepper in a medium bowl and whisk until smooth. Place chicken and fatback in another medium bowl.
• Add seasoning mixture to meat and either mix by hand or with a mixer with a paddle attachment for 45 seconds to 1 minute. (The mixture should be slightly sticky.)
• Place sausage mix into a sausage press, then add casings to tube and press out sausages.
• Link into 8-inch sausages.
• Bring a large pot filled with water to a simmer. Poach sausages until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
• For the Thai curry chicken sausage sandwich: Combine mayo and sriracha in a small bowl and set aside.
• Preheat a griddle or nonstick saute pan. Cut 1 sausage lengthwise down the middle and spread open. Oil griddle and place sausage on; cook until skin is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Place roll on griddle to toast. Place sausage on roll and top with 1/3 cup slaw and sriracha mayo. Cut in half and serve.

Steps:

• Place oil in a large skillet; turn heat to medium-high. A minute later, add onions, along with a generous pinch of salt and some pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are very soft and almost falling apart, 15 minutes or more. Stir in curry powder, and cook, stirring, for another minute or so.
• Add coconut milk, and cook until it thickens, about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add chicken, and stir, then cook until done, 3 to 6 minutes. (If you use shrimp, keep in mind that it cooks a little faster than chicken; if you are in doubt about whether chicken is done, cut into a piece.)
• Add tomato, and cook another minute; adjust seasonings as necessary. Serve over rice, garnished with basil or mint, if desired.

Steps:

• Stir curry powder and vinegar in small bowl to blend. Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté until onion is translucent, about 6 minutes. Add curry mixture, stir 2 minutes. Add basil and crushed red pepper; stir 1 minute. Add broth, cream and coconut extract; boil until reduced to sauce consistency, about 6 minutes. Add chicken; stir until heated through. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Peel shallots or onion and cut in half from top to root. Lay the cut sides flat on a board and thinly slice. Very finely slice the lemongrass, starting at the thinner end, stopping towards the base when it gets tough (often described as 'woody' and white in the centre).
• Heat the oil in a wok or large saucepan for a couple of minutes until the oil separates (it looks more liquid at this point). Add the shallots or onion. Fry for 3-5 mins, until soft and translucent. Stir in the curry paste and cook for 1 min, stirring all the time.
• Add chicken pieces and stir until they are coated. Add the lemongrass, fish sauce, sugar, lime leaves and coconut milk. Bring slowly to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 15 mins until the chicken is cooked. Stir the curry a few times while it cooks, to stop it sticking and to keep the chicken submerged.
• While the chicken is cooking, strip the leaves from the coriander stalks, gather into a pile and chop very roughly. Taste the curry and add a little more curry paste and salt if you think it needs it. Stir half the coriander into the curry and sprinkle the rest over the top. Serve with Thai jasmine or basmati rice.
