Coriander Curry Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Place all the ingredients in a food processor, blend until smooth. This will keep in an airtight container for 2 to 3 days.

Steps:

• In a small heatproof bowl sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup consommé to soften 1 minute.
• In a small saucepan bring remaining consommé just to a boil and remove pan from heat. Stir hot consommé into gelatin mixture, continuing to stir until mixture is dissolved completely, and cool.
• In a blender combine cream cheese, consommé mixture, curry powder, and garlic and blend 30 seconds. Pour dip through a fine sieve into a medium serving bowl. Chop coriander and stir into dip. Chill dip, covered, 6 hours, or until thickened (dip will not set firm).
• Serve dip with breadsticks and crudités.

Steps:

• Whizz together the coconut milk and coriander (leaves and stalks) in a food processor, then tip out and set aside. Quickly wipe out the machine, add the garlic, ginger and chillies, then whizz with enough water to make a paste.
• Heat the oil in a large non-stick pan. Brown the chicken well on all sides, then remove. Add the onion, cloves and cinnamon and fry until lightly coloured. Add the chilli paste to the pan, then cook until most of the liquid has evaporated.
• Return the chicken, then stir in the powdered spices and coconut paste. Bring to a boil, cover the pan, then cook for 40-50 mins, removing the lid halfway through cooking so the sauce can thicken. Check the chicken is cooked, stir in the tamarind paste, season to taste, then add a splash of water if the sauce has thickened too much.

Steps:

• Mix together mayonnaise, sour cream, curry powder, turmeric, onion, lemon juice, garlic salt, cumin, and cayenne in a bowl. Stir until well combined. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Put the mango chutney in a bowl and chop up any large pieces of mango. Mix with the spring onions, coriander and lime juice. Cover and chill until ready to serve. (You can make this up to a day ahead and keep it in a covered container in the fridge.) Serve the chilled dip in a bowl on a plate, with the poppadums broken in pieces and placed around the sides.

Steps:

• Pluck the mint leaves from the steams.
• Chop and remove coriander's hard and thick steams from the back of the bunch(no need to pluck the leaves as soft steams of coriander can also be used)
• Wash all the greens and chilies with enough water.
• Now add all the ingredients in a mixer jar and grind to make a smooth paste,add approx. 1/2 cup water while grinding if needed
• Take out the chutney in a jar,cover and keep refrigerated,easily stays fresh for minimum 2 weeks.
• MY NOTES -
• 1-*Can also use lemon size ball of tamarind OR 3 tbsp of peeled and chopped raw mango instead of lemon juice.
• 2- Can substitute almonds with 2 tbsp of roasted peanuts .
• 3-Spinach and almonds are added to make it smooth and creamy, to add nutrition and the oil from the nuts will also act as a preservative.
• 3- Sugar is added to balance the slightly bitter and strong taste of mint,if you are using only coriander leaves then can omit sugar.
• 4- Add 1 tbsp of chutney in 1/2 cup of yoghurt to make mint and yoghurt dip.
• 5-Love spicy food-try adding 1-2 cloves and 4 peppercorns while grinding for a twist in the taste .
• Serving suggestions-can serve as a dip for snacks,spread for sandwiches or wraps and as a side dish too.
