Coconut Red Curry Sauce And Noodles Recipes

Steps:

• For the rice: Combine the water and rice in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil, adjust to a low simmer, cover and cook until the rice is tender, and all the water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat and keep covered. (Tip: don't stir the rice while it's cooking.)
• For the curry: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pepper, zucchini, eggplant and onion and cook, stirring, until crisp tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Combine the tomatoes, garam masala, cumin, paprika, turmeric, salt, cayenne, garlic and ginger in a medium pot, bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes. Careful of splashing, pour in coconut milk and add the coconut oil, turn off heat and let cool for about 5 minutes. Puree with hand stick blender (or in batches in a blender) until smooth.
• Add the cooked vegetables to the curry sauce and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Toast or grill the naan or pita bread until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Cut into pieces.
• For serving: Fill bowls with some rice and then top with some curry. Sprinkle with scallion and serve with a piece of naan or pita bread.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook the mushrooms, ginger and shallots until soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in the red curry paste and cook 1 minute. Whisk in the coconut milk, and then add the cabbage, carrots and tofu and cook 5 minutes more. Remove from the heat and stir in the honey, scallions, lime juice and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. Let cool slightly, and then toss over the noodles.

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, scoop the cream off the top of each can of coconut and put it in the pot. The cream will be used as the "fat" instead of oil or butter. Along with the cream, add the curry paste and ginger. Let this simmer, stirring constantly, for about one minute.
• Add the chicken and onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes. Add the coconut milk, sweet Thai chili sauce, cilantro, and chicken broth. Bring this to a simmer.
• Add the red pepper, broccoli slaw and/or carrots and noodles and salt. Simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent the noodles from sticking to the bottom, for about 5-8 minutes. The noodles will thicken and plump up as they absorb the liquid. The mixture will be slightly soupy when the noodles are finished cooking.
• Take the pot off the heat and let the noodles sit for about 5 minutes. The mixture will continue to thicken. Garnish with more cilantro, if desired.
