Sweet And Spicy Thai Curry And Coconut Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the Ghee in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-low heat. Add the onions, ginger, and garlic and cook slowly until the onions are very soft, about 15 minutes. Add the tomato paste, Curry Powder, cinnamon stick, and chiles and give it a good stir; season with salt and pepper. Pour in the coconut milk and chicken stock and bring it back to a simmer; cook until the sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes. Add the tomatoes, chicken, cilantro, and half the lemon juice; continue to simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Garnish with cilantro and mint leaves.
• Put the butter in a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat. Melt the butter slowly and make sure it does not sizzle or brown. Increase the heat and bring the butter to a boil. When the surface is covered with foam, stir gently and reduce the heat to the lowest possible setting. Gently simmer, uncovered, and undisturbed for 45 minutes, until the milk solids in the bottom of the pan have turned golden brown and the butter on top is transparent. Strain the ghee through a sieve lined with several layers of cheesecloth. The ghee should be perfectly clear and smell nutty; pour into a glass jar and seal tightly.
• Toast the coriander, cumin, cardamom, peppercorns, fennel, mustard, cloves, and the chiles in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat just until they smell fragrant, about 2 minutes. In a clean coffee grinder or spice mill, grind the toasted spices together to a fine powder. Add the turmeric and give it another quick buzz to combine. Use the curry powder immediately, or store in a sealed jar for up to 1 month.

Steps:

• I like to use a hand blender at the start of this sauce to get everything blended well. Put all ingredients but the coconut in a food processor or use a hand blender until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add coconut at the end stirring in to keep flakes intact. If you are going to cook with this sauce add the sesame oil just before serving to get the best flavor from it.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 450 and postion a rack near the top. In a large bowl, whisk 1/2 tsp of the red curry paste with the oil. Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread the chicken on a large rimmed baking sheet and bake for about 25-30 minutes, turning once, until cooked through and just starting to brown. Remove from the oven; preheat the broiler.
• 2. While chicken is browning, in a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, fish sauce, brown sugar and the remaining red curry paste. Cook over high heat, bring to a boil for about 4 minutes and then cook over high heat stirring occassionally until slightly thickened.
• 3. Transfer the chicken to a large bowl. Add the coconut-curry sauce and toss to coat. Pour off any excess fat from the baking sheet. Return the chicken to the sheet and pour any extra sauce over the chicken. Broil for 5 minutes, turning once (should be browned). Transfer to a platter and serve with cilantro and lime wedges.

Steps:

• Cook onion, garlic, curry paste, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in oil in a wide 2-quart heavy saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until onion is softened, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Add coconut milk and gently simmer, stirring frequently, until reduced to 2 cups, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, cayenne, cilantro (if desired), and salt to taste.

Steps:

• Heat the sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook the turkey with onion and garlic in the oil until the meat is no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Chop the meat up into crumbles as it cooks. Stir in the garbanzo beans, tomatoes, curry powder, chili sauce, and coconut milk; bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.

Steps:

• heat a wok or large pan over med. heat with the coconut milk. whisk in 2 tbs curry paste. cook for a few minutes until hot and combined.
• add fish sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice and water (you can taste before adding the water, you might not want it!). add more curry if you want now.
• add veggies and bring to a boil. reduce and simmer about 10 mins, or until the tenderness you like.
• serve over sticky rice.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in saucepan.
• Add onion and saute until golden brown.
• Add curry paste and stir 1 minute.
• (Note: I used two TBS curry paste for this recipe but I like lots of spice so if you like a milder curry, use 1 TBS) Add broth and coconut milk.
• Boil 3 minutes, then stir in lime juice, garlic, ginger, tomato, cilantro, fish sauce and sugar.
• Simmer uncovered until lightly thickened, about 20 to 30 minutes.
• Pour sauce into a blender and blend until smooth.
