Thai Green Curry With Seafood Recipes

Steps:

• Add 2 tablespoons oil to a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and par-cook by searing each side for about 1 minute, making sure to not crowd the skillet. Remove the shrimp to a plate and set aside. Return the skillet to the heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons peanut oil along with the onions, jalapenos and a pinch of salt and cook until they start to brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Add the green curry paste and stir to combine; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the chicken stock to deglaze the skillet, stirring. Add the coconut milk, fish sauce and sugar and mix well. Bring to a simmer and continue to cook until it thickens, about 10 minutes.
• Add the shrimp to the curry and cook until cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Ladle the curry into a serving bowl and garnish with the basil, mint and peanuts. Serve with steamed rice-a perfect combination.

Steps:

• Put the kaffir lime leaves and 1/3 cup of the oil in a blender. Set at the blender's lowest speed, start the blender and slowly increase the speed to high. Blend for 25 seconds. Transfer to a small bowl and let sit for 5 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean small bowl and reserve. Clean the blender carafe.
• Put the cilantro, chiles, garlic, shallots, ginger, lemongrass, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/3 cup water in the blender. Set at the blender's lowest speed, start the blender and slowly increase the speed to medium-high. Blend for 40 seconds to make a fine puree, stopping once to scrape down the sides of the carafe.
• Heat the remaining 1/4 cup oil in a large high-sided skillet over medium heat. Carefully add the cilantro puree. Cook, stirring constantly, until thick and olive green, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the fish sauce and brown sugar. Cook 1 minute more, then add the coconut milk and 1 1/4 cups water. Add more salt and fish sauce if desired. Bring to a simmer and cook gently for 5 minutes.
• Turn the heat to medium-low and add the shrimp and lime juice. Cover and cook until the undersides of the shrimp are beginning to turn pink, about 3 minutes. Flip the shrimp, cover and cook for 2 minutes more. Add the tomatoes and snow peas, cover and cook until the shrimp are pink on both sides and cooked through, about 1 minute more.
• Ladle the curry into 4 soup bowls. Sprinkle with cilantro leaves and drizzle with some of the kaffir lime oil.

Steps:

• Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Mix in onion, fish sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic; cook and stir about 5 minutes. Add chicken, curry paste, and basil. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes more. Add eggplant, cover, and reduce heat to low to avoid burning spices. Cook about 5 minutes more.
• Pour broth, coconut milk, and bamboo shoots into the saucepan. Continue cooking until eggplant is tender and curry is heated through, 5 to 10 minutes more. Stir in lime juice before serving over cooked rice with basil leaves.

Steps:

• In a wok or large saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the eggplant, onions and bell pepper and cook until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the curry paste, lime leaves, and fish sauce, and cook, stirring, for 15 seconds. Add the coconut milk and shrimp stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook until pink, about 2 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup of Thai basil and remove from heat.
• Season to taste with salt. Garnish with remaining 1/4 cup Thai basil. Serve with rice and lime wedges.

Steps:

• In a wok or large saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
• Add the onions and garlic, and cook until softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add the eggplant and the peppers and cook, stirring, about 4 minutes.
• Add the curry paste, lemon juice and cook, stirring, for 15 seconds.
• Add the coconut milk and fish stock and bring to a boil.
• Lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 3 minutes.
• Add the shrimp and cook until pink, about 2 minutes. Add basil.
• Stir cornstarch that you mixed with the water if it needs more thickening. Remove from heat.
• Serve on angel hair pasta.
• Be careful with the curry paste and add to your taste.

Steps:

• To make the curry paste, gradually combine all the ingredients, except the shrimp paste, using a pestle and mortar. Add the ingredients one at a time and pound vigorously after each to form a rough paste. Add the shrimp paste and continue to pound together until you have a smooth paste. The paste is ready when you can no longer identify any of the ingredients. Will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days or in the freezer for up to three months.
• To make the curry, heat the oil in a saucepan over a low heat. Add the green curry paste and stir until fragrant - you won't need all the paste. Increase the heat to medium and add in the chicken pieces, coating with the paste. When the chicken has browned, spoon in half the coconut milk, avoiding adding any of the water at the bottom of the tin - this will split the curry. Stir continuously for 10 mins or until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce is simmering.
• Pour in the remaining coconut milk, discarding the water, and turn the heat up to bring to the boil, then return the heat to medium. Add the Thai and pea aubergines with the baby corn and sugar snap peas and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 10 mins or until the flavours combine, the sauce thickens slightly and vegetables are tender.
• Gradually add the fish sauce and palm sugar, stirring and tasting after each addition until you are happy. Add the lime leaves and most of the Thai basil, then cook for a further 5 mins to let their flavours infuse. To serve, pour the curry into individual serving dishes and scatter over the sliced chilli and the remaining Thai basil leaves.
