Curried Corn And Coconut Rice Recipes

QUICK COCONUT CURRY WITH RICE, CORN, AND BEANS

Steps:

• Mix black-eyed peas, coconut milk, corn, tomato paste, curry powder, sugar, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a pot until smooth and evenly combined; simmer over medium-low heat, stirring often, until curry sauce is heated through, about 5 minutes.
• Pour enough water into a separate pot to almost fill and bring to a boil; season with a pinch of salt. Add rice to boiling water and cook, stirring occasionally, until rice is very soft, about 15 minutes. Drain excess water from rice.
• Mix rice and curry sauce together in a large bowl.

COCONUT-CURRY WHEAT BERRIES AND RICE

Steps:

• Soak the wheat berries overnight in enough water to cover by 1 inch. Drain. Combine the wheat berries with 1 3/4 cups water in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, adjust heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the wheat berries are tender but still toothsome, about 50 minutes. Let sit, covered, for 10 minutes. Drain off any excess water. (Wheat berries can be cooked and refrigerated up to 3 days in advance).
• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until deep golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add the curry powder and cayenne and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the rice and 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir to coat. Pour in 1 cup water and the coconut milk; bring to a boil, lower heat to medium low, cover and simmer until most of the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Uncover and add the cooked wheat berries and raisins (no need to stir). Cover again and let sit off the heat for 10 minutes.
• Stir in the cilantro, lemon juice and cashews. Serve warm.

CURRIED CORN

Stir the sour cream into the vegetable mixture, season with salt and pepper, and continue cooking until hot, stirring continually, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

CURRIED CORN AND COCONUT RICE

Steps:

• To make the Jamaican curry powder, combine all the ingredients in a mortar or spice grinder and grind into a fine powder. Transfer to a jar, and seal tightly. Stored at room temperature, it will keep for 6 months. (Note: You will only need 1/2 teaspoon for this recipe.) To prepare the rice, combine the coconut milk, water, and salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the rice, stir well, and return to a boil. Immediately decrease the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 50 minutes, until all of the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for at least 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving. To prepare the corn, put about 8 cups of water in a medium pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Add 1 teaspoon of the salt, then add the corn. Immediately remove from the heat and let sit for 30 seconds. Drain well. Warm the oil in a medium sauté pan over medium heat. Add 1/2 teaspoon Jamaican curry powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the corn and sauté until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. To serve, spoon the corn over the rice and garnish with thyme.

COCONUT & CORN CURRY

Steps:

• Put the lentils in a sieve and rinse until the water runs clean. Put the oil in a saucepan over a medium heat, tip in the onion and cook for 8 mins until softened. Add the ginger, turmeric and curry powder, and cook for another minute until fragrant. Stir in the lentils.
• Tip in 400ml hot water and bring to the boil. Turn the heat down to medium and simmer for 15 mins until most of the water has been absorbed. Add the baby corn and 100ml water, cover and continue to simmer for 5-10 mins until the lentils are soft and the corn still has a little bite. Stir in the coconut yogurt to warm up, but don't let it boil. Serve topped with more coconut yogurt, if you like, and coriander leaves sprinkled over.
