SRI LANKAN CASHEW CURRY



Sri Lankan Cashew Curry image

This creamy, mellow cashew curry recipe is often the one soothing element-besides rice, of course-in an otherwise fiery Sri Lankan meal.

Categories     Cashew     Onion     Garlic     Ginger     Curry     Paprika     Lime     Sri Lanka     Dinner     Vegan     Vegetarian     Coconut

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups raw cashews, soaked in water overnight
1 Tbsp. virgin coconut oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 2" piece ginger, peeled, finely chopped
2 tsp. homemade or store-bought unroasted Sri Lankan curry powder
½ tsp. ground turmeric
½ tsp. paprika
1¼ tsp. kosher salt, plus more
1¼ cups unsweetened coconut milk
Lime wedges (for serving)

Steps:

  • Drain and rinse cashews; set aside. Heat coconut oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium. Add onion, garlic, and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and translucent, 5-7 minutes.
  • Add curry powder, turmeric, paprika, and 1¼ tsp. salt to pot and cook, stirring to coat aromatics, until toasted and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  • Add 1½ cups water to pot, scraping up any browned bits stuck to bottom with a wooden spoon. Stir in coconut milk and reserved cashews and bring just to a boil. Reduce heat so mixture is at a rapid simmer and cook, stirring occasionally and adjusting heat as needed, until cashews soften slightly and liquid is reduced by two thirds, 25-35 minutes. Remove from heat and let cashew curry sit 10 minutes (sauce will continue to thicken as it cools). Squeeze in lime juice; taste and season with more salt if needed.
  • Cook's Note: Don't stress over the texture of the cashews. After their overnight soak and simmer, they'll be plenty soft-and you can't really overcook them.

COCONUT CHICKEN CURRY WITH CASHEWS



Coconut Chicken Curry With Cashews image

This Sri Lankan curry goes together fairly quickly despite the long list of ingredients. I used skinless, boneless thigh meat, because it always stays moist and can absorb a lot of flavor from a short marinade in ginger, garlic and spices. To intensify the taste, the cashews and coconut are used two ways. First, a handful of each is ground to a powder and added to the sauce. Then after simmering for 30 minutes or so, the curry is finished with a generous cup of thick coconut milk and garnished with toasted cashews. I also added, because I like it and thought it would harmonize nicely, a totally nontropical vegetable, parsnip - optional, but delicious.

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 pounds skinless boneless chicken thighs, cut in 3-inch chunks
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 teaspoons grated garlic
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/4 teaspoon cardamom seeds
1/4 teaspoon allspice berries
1/4 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/4 teaspoon coriander seeds
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne, or more to taste
3 tablespoons lemon juice
3/4 cup raw cashews
1/4 cup shredded dried unsweetened coconut
1 pound small parsnips, peeled and cut in 2-inch batons, optional
2 tablespoons ghee, coconut oil or vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups finely diced onion
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 2-inch piece cinnamon stick
3 cups chicken broth or water
1 cup thick coconut milk
A few sprigs mint and cilantro for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Season chicken generously with salt and pepper and put it in a mixing bowl. Add ginger and garlic and massage into meat. In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast cloves, fennel, cardamom, allspice, cumin and coriander until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Grind the toasted spices to a fine powder in an electric spice mill and add to chicken. Add turmeric, cayenne and lemon juice and mix well. Let marinate at room temperature for at least 15 minutes, or refrigerate up to 1 hour.
  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Put cashews on a baking sheet and roast until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and set aside to cool. Spread the shredded coconut on the baking sheet and toast until lightly browned, about 5 minutes, then let cool. Grind the coconut with 1/4 cup cashews in a spice mill or small food processor to make a rough powder. Reserve 1/2 cup roasted cashews for garnish.
  • Bring a small saucepan of lightly salted water to a simmer, then add parsnips and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and cool.
  • In a wide heavy-bottomed pot, heat ghee over medium-high heat. Add cooked parsnips, if using, and sauté until lightly browned. Remove and reserve. Add chicken pieces to the pot, stirring occasionally until lightly browned, about 5 minutes, then remove and set aside. Add onions and cook until softened, about 5 minutes more. Add tomato paste and let it sizzle with onions for a minute or two. Add broth and bring to a brisk simmer, stirring with a wooden spoon and scraping up any caramelized bits from the pot. Add cinnamon stick, chicken and the ground coconut and cashew mixture. Adjust heat to a gentle simmer, cover and cook for about 30 minutes, until chicken is tender. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  • To finish the dish, stir in coconut milk and add reserved parsnips. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until parsnips are heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with reserved cashews. Garnish with mint and cilantro sprigs, if using.
