Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Season the chicken drumsticks with salt and pepper.

Place the drumsticks in the skillet, and brown the chicken on all sides, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer the skillet to the oven.
• Bake the chicken drumsticks in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes.

Pour the drumsticks and apricot sauce into the skillet. Cover and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in water chestnuts just before serving.

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.

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients together into one pot, the order is unimportant
• I cook this in the microwave but can just as easily be done on the hob.
• Microwave:
• Cook on high for 5 minutes and give it a good stir. Then simmer for 30 minutes. Stir twice during that time.
• Hob:
• Gently bring to the boil then turn down the heat. Simmer for around 30 minutes.

In a small bowl, mix coconut milk, curry paste and salt; pour over chicken., Bake, covered, 18-22 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink.

Steps:

• Place onions and peppers in a 4-qt. slow cooker. Sprinkle chicken with 1 tablespoon curry powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt; place over vegetables., In a small bowl, whisk coconut milk, broth, garlic, pepper and the remaining curry powder and salt.

Cook, covered, on low 3-3-1/2 hours or until chicken is tender (a thermometer should read at least 165°), adding apricots during the last 30 minutes of cooking., Serve with rice and lime wedges. If desired, sprinkle with cashews and cilantro.

Steps:

• Cut onion, bell pepper, and eggplant into bite size pieces and set aside. (I like large chunks on my spoon, so I don't cut them too small).
• Shred carrots with a vegetable peeler and set aside.
• Cut tomatoes in half and set aside.
• Cut chicken into bite size pieces and set aside.
• Pour the oil into a five-quart pot and put over medium heat.
• When the oil is hot, but not smoking, add the Thai Red Curry Paste and stir, sautéing for about 2 minutes. (I like my Thai Red Curry the same as I ate it in Thailand, very spicy. Therefore, I use about 6 to 8 tablespoons of curry paste. My guess is most people would use about five. Any less, what's the point? Use your judgment for what you like.).
• Add the coconut milk and chicken stock, then throw the chicken bullion cube in the pot and stir.
• After the liquid begins to boil, add the vegetables, carrots, and tomatoes.
• Add sugar, lemon juice, sweet basil leaves, and crushed basil, then bring to a boil again. (I usually turn the heat down and allow the vegetables to cook for about five minutes or so before adding the chicken.).
• Add the chicken and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and simmer for about five more minutes.
• Serve with hot Jasmine rice.
