Shirataki Carrot Curry Croquettes Food

SHIRATAKI-CARROT CURRY CROQUETTES

Steps:

• Wrap a paper towel around the grated carrots and place in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until tender, about 1 minute. Cool carrots to room temperature and squeeze out as much juice as possible.
• Rinse and thoroughly dry the shirataki noodles. Blend in a food processor until the consistency of small grains of rice is reached; transfer to a bowl.
• Mix carrots, egg whites, chives, cilantro, curry powder, onion flakes, garlic powder, and salt with the ground noodles until evenly combined.
• Coat a skillet with cooking spray and place skillet over high heat. Drop a heaping spoonful of the noodle mixture into the skillet and gently flatten with a metal spatula. Cook until lightly browned, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining noodle mixture.

CARROT CURRY

Steps:

• For the curry sauce:
• Put the star anise, cardamom, cinnamon sticks, and garam masala in a small dry skillet and toast over medium heat, stirring, just until fragrant, about 30 seconds; be careful not to burn the spices. Scrape onto a plate and set aside.
• Grate the cut sides of the tomatoes on the large holes of a flat or box grater set over (or in) a bowl; discard the skins. Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato puree and the toasted spices, then add the carrot juice and lime juice, bring to a simmer, and cook gently again until the sauce can easily coat the back of a spoon, about 30 minutes.
• Add the saffron and cook for 1 minute, then stir in the coconut milk and cook for another few minutes to let the flavors get friendly. Remove from the heat and pick out and discard the whole spices. With an immersion blender, blend the sauce until smooth (or use a regular blender), then pour it into a smaller saucepan. Season with salt.
• To finish the dish:
• Add the carrots to the curry sauce and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender, about 35 minutes.
• Spoon the curry into bowls and drizzle each serving with a bit of coconut milk. Garnish each bowl with cilantro leaves, lime zest, and lime juice. Serve with rice.
