Authentic Thai Red Curry With Chicken Food

THAI RED CHICKEN CURRY

Steps:

• To make the paste, put the cumin and coriander seeds in a small dry frying pan and toast over a medium heat for 30 seconds until fragrant. Transfer to a heavy pestle and mortar and grind as finely as possible.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop the red chillies, leaving the seeds in (they add vital heat to the dish) and put in a mini food processor with the soaked dried chillies and 1 tbsp of the soaking liquid. Blend to a purée and set aside.
• Add the rest of the paste ingredients to the pestle and mortar, one by one, making sure each ingredient has been pounded to a paste before adding the next. Finally, pound in the puréed chillies. (Alternatively, put all the paste ingredients into a small food processor and whizz to a paste.)
• To make the curry, heat the oil in a wok or frying pan and fry the shallots for 5 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and fry for 30 seconds more. Add 4 heaped tbsp of the curry paste and fry for 1 minute, then add ½ tbsp fish sauce, the palm sugar, lime leaves, coconut milk, 150-200ml water and the aubergines. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes. Add the chicken and cook for another 10 minutes. Add the beans and cook for a further 5 minutes until tender.
• Remove from the heat, taste and add more fish sauce if needed, then stir in the herbs and serve with steamed or coconut rice and lime wedges to squeeze over.

• Bring to the boil, take off the heat and add ½ small pack Thai basil.

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.).

AUTHENTIC THAI GREEN CURRY RECIPE (แกงเขียวหวาน) - BEST TASTE!

Steps:

• The first step is to prepare your ingredients to pound your green curry paste. Remove the stems of the Thai green chilies, peel the garlic and shallots, thinly slice the galangal, cilantro roots, and lemongrass. For the kaffir lime, delicately slice off all the green bumpy peel. For the cumin and coriander seed, dry roast them in a hot skillet for 30 seconds to bring out the aroma.
• Pound all the green curry paste ingredients in a stone mortar and pestle, apart from the shrimp paste, which you'll add at the very end. Pounding can take 1 - 2 hours, and you're looking for a smooth pureed paste. One good measure of a Thai curry paste is that you shouldn't see any chili seeds remaining in your paste, they should all be pounded out.
• Once your paste is finished, add the shrimp paste, and mix and mash until it's evenly mixed in. Set your green curry paste aside.
• Prepare your whole chicken by gutting and cleaning it. Chop the entire chicken into bite sized pieces. Alternatively, you could use typical pieces like drumsticks and thighs, or boneless chicken breast.
• In a pot, add 2 cups of water, the green curry paste, your pieces of chicken, and toss in about 10 kaffir lime leaves broken in half (this is for a citrusy fragrance).
• Boil the chicken for about 10 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and most of the water has evaporated, leaving mostly the thick curry paste and chicken at the bottom of the pot.
• While the chicken is boiling, prepare the Thai eggplant by cutting them into quarters. Pluck the Thai sweet basil off the stems so you just have the leaves and set them aside. And finally julienne the red spur chilies.
• After about 10 minutes of boiling the chicken, add in the coconut cream, and bring to a boil, stirring delicately. At this stage you can taste test your curry to see if it needs more salt. Add salt accordingly, I added in about ½ tsp. of salt.
• Next add the Thai eggplant and red spur chilies and boil for just 2 - 3 minutes.
• The final step is to toss the the Thai sweet basil, turn off the heat, and just let the sweet basil wilt into the curry.

COCONUT CURRY THAI CHICKEN

Steps:

• For the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine all of the sauce ingredients, whisk until thoroughly combined and set aside.
• For the chicken: Cook the whole wheat linguine al dente according to box directions. Drain and rinse under cold water and spray lightly with olive oil cooking spray so it does not stick and set aside.
• Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and add onions. Cook until translucent and beginning to brown, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper and stir in curry powder. Saute chicken until lightly brown. Add the peanut butter and allow it to melt to coat the chicken.
• Add the roasted red peppers, water chestnuts and scallions and season with salt and pepper as you like. Saute for a few minutes just to release flavor.
• Pour the coconut curry sauce over the chicken and vegetables and stir gently. Cook just until warmed through and thickened a bit, about 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, as needed. Garnish with chopped mint and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
• SUZY'S SERVING OPTIONS: (Serves four or more ? can be doubled easily)
• Family Style ? Put linguine in a large deep platter or decorative bowl and pour mixture over the top. Toss gently with tongs. Garnish with fresh lime juice, and chopped scallions or herbs.
• Low Carb Diets ? On a large dinner plate place Boston lettuce leaves in a fan covering the entire plate. Place 1/4 of the chicken mixture on top and drizzle with fresh lime juice and garnish with scallions. The sauce will form a natural salad dressing for the lettuce.
• Individual Plates: Each serving is 2 oz. dry pasta and 1/4 of the chicken mixture. Garnish it with fresh lime juice, a lime wedge and scallions or herbs. Serve it on a small exotic plate for added presentation.
• NOTE: You may substitute shrimp or tofu for the chicken and it is equally delicious!!

Simmer coconut milk, stirring constantly, until it has reduced by half and you can see oil separating from the milk, 5 to 6 minutes. (Note: This step to "break" the coconut milk is part of the traditional process, but don't worry if your coconut milk doesn't show signs of separating after this initial cook time - just proceed with the recipe.)

• Add chicken breast and stir to coat in the curry paste.
• Pour chicken stock and 1 cup coconut milk over chicken.

CHICKEN MEATBALLS IN THAI RED CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place an oven rack about 7-10 inches from the broiler unit and preheat the broiler. Drizzle a little oil on a baking sheet and use your hands to evenly coat the bottom. Do not use parchment paper for broiling or it will burn.
• Place panko breadcrumbs in a large bowl and add 1/4 cup milk. Using a fork, mix to combine. Add the eggs, garlic and onion powder, scallions, salt and pepper. Mix well until you have a paste. Add the ground chicken and using the fork, or your hands, mix until well combined. Don't overwork the mixture. Use a cookie scoop to form the mixture into 2-inch meatballs, this should make about 30 meatballs. Grease your hands with a little oil and roll each meatball between your palms to smooth them out. Arrange them on the baking sheet with a little space between each ball.
• Place the baking sheet in the oven and broil the meatballs for 5-6 minutes. No need to flip. Check, and if the top of meatballs are golden-brown remove them from the oven. If they are still a bit pale, leave them in 1-2 minutes longer. Watch them closely because the meatballs can overcook quickly. They will continue to cook in the curry sauce or when reheated from frozen (if making extra).
• Meanwhile make the curry sauce. Spoon the thick cream from the top of the can (about 1/2 cup from each can) into a medium-sized saucepan and heat over medium-high heat. Add the curry paste and fry until the sauce is bubbly and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. The oil might separate from the cream and this is a good thing (but don't worry if it doesn't). Add the rest of the coconut milk along with the chicken broth and stir a few times until sauce is smooth.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and add sugar, fish sauce, and kaffir lime leaves (if using) and simmer for about 3-5 more minutes. Add the meatballs and toss to coat well in the sauce. Simmer for 5-8 minutes until meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has slightly thickened. Serve over white rice or rice noodle, and garnish with remaining scallions, fresh basil, cilantro, and lime wedges.
