Thai Vegetable Stew Recipes

Steps:

• Bring the rice and water to a boil in a pot. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer 45 minutes.
• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat, and cook the onion, garlic, ginger, and carrots 5 minutes, until tender. Mix in broccoli, red bell pepper, coconut milk, broth, wine, fish sauce, soy sauce, Thai chile peppers, lemon grass, garlic sauce, and saffron. Simmer 25 minutes.
• Pour soup in batches into a blender or food processor, and blend until smooth and creamy. Return to the pot, and mix in yogurt and cooked rice. Top with cilantro to serve.

Steps:

• Pat the chicken dry and season with salt. In a casserole set over moderately high heat, warm the oil until it is hot, add the chicken and cook it, turning, until no longer pink. Transfer chicken to a plate. Add the onion to the casserole and cook it, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and gingerroot and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add the carrots, bell pepper, mushrooms, and salt to taste, and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes more. Return the chicken to the pan, add the curry paste and cook the mixture, turning and stirring, 1 minute. Add the coconut milk, galanga root powder, lemongrass flakes, cumin, and bay leaf. Bring mixture to a boil, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes. Add the broccoli, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, corn, and salt to taste, and simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Discard bay leaf. Before serving, stir in the lemon juice, cilantro, and mint.

Steps:

• 1) Heat oil in large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and onion; saute 5 minutes or until vegetables begin to soften. Add garlic, ginger and curry paste; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• 2) Add coconut milk and fish sauce, brown sugar and 2 cups water to pot; bring to a simmer.
• 3) Add potatoes and carrots; reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until vegetables just begin to soften, 5 to 8 minutes.

• 5) Serve hot over jasmine rice.
