Peanut And Pineapple Curry Recipes

PINEAPPLE CURRY

Steps:

• Pulse the coconut, turmeric, onion, garlic and cumin seeds in a food processor until finely chopped and combined. Set aside.
• Heat the coconut oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the mustard seeds and the curry leaves, and let them cook until the mustard seeds pop, about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the coconut mixture and 2/3 cup water and cook for about 3 minutes. Then add the pineapple, sugar, salt and another 1/3 cup water, if needed. Continue cooking until the water has almost been absorbed and the pineapple is soft, about 10 minutes. Adjust the seasonings to taste and serve with rice.

THAI PINEAPPLE CHICKEN CURRY

• Mix the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion into the wok. Continue cooking 10 minutes, until chicken juices run clear and peppers are tender. Remove from heat, and stir in pineapple. Serve over the cooked rice.

PEANUT CURRY WITH CHICKEN AND BASIL

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add garlic and 1/3 of the basil. Saute until garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add onion and cook until transparent, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add chicken to the pan with remaining sesame oil and season with chile powder. Add mushrooms and bamboo shoots. Cook until the chicken is only slightly pink in the center and the mushrooms have started to lose their moisture, 4 to 5 minutes. Add curry paste and mix well.
• Pour in 1/2 of the coconut milk. Stir until vegetables and chicken are evenly coated. Add peanut butter and curry powder and mix thoroughly. Cook over medium heat until the sauce thickens, stirring often to keep the sauce from burning to the bottom of the pan, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low and add remaining coconut milk and brown sugar. Continue to simmer over low heat until desired consistency is reached, 10 to 15 minutes more, tasting and adding more peanut butter if needed.
