Best 5 Coconut Curry Caramel Corn Recipes

COCONUT SUGAR CARAMEL CORN

Steps:

• In a very large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed stock pot set over medium-high heat, heat both oils and 3 popcorn kernels. When the 3 kernels pop, add the remaining kernels, lower heat to medium-low, and cover almost all the way with a lid, leaving a tiny crack for steam to escape (face crack away from where you are standing).
• Cook, shaking occasionally, until popping stops. Transfer popcorn to a large rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• In the same pot, heat sugar, butter, turmeric and salt over medium heat, stirring, until sugar is melted and starting to bubble. Cook, without stirring, until sugar has reached 235 degrees, 3 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in popcorn. Transfer popcorn to back to lined baking sheet. Cool, then break into pieces and serve.

COCONUT & CORN CURRY

Steps:

• Put the lentils in a sieve and rinse until the water runs clean. Put the oil in a saucepan over a medium heat, tip in the onion and cook for 8 mins until softened. Add the ginger, turmeric and curry powder, and cook for another minute until fragrant. Stir in the lentils.
• Tip in 400ml hot water and bring to the boil. Turn the heat down to medium and simmer for 15 mins until most of the water has been absorbed. Add the baby corn and 100ml water, cover and continue to simmer for 5-10 mins until the lentils are soft and the corn still has a little bite. Stir in the coconut yogurt to warm up, but don't let it boil. Serve topped with more coconut yogurt, if you like, and coriander leaves sprinkled over.

COCONUT CARAMELS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread the coconut flakes in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet, and toast until light golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Brush an 8-inch baking dish generously with coconut oil or coat with cooking spray. Sprinkle about 3 to 4 tablespoons of toasted coconut in an even layer on the bottom of the pan, and set aside.
• In a medium heavy saucepan, combine the coconut cream, sugar, corn syrup and sea salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Boil, stirring frequently especially toward the end, until a candy thermometer reaches 250 degrees and caramel is a light golden brown and thickened, about 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the ginger and cardamom.
• Pour the caramel into the prepared pan. Once the caramel stops bubbling and the surface forms a thin skin, about 3 minutes, sprinkle another 4 tablespoons toasted coconut across the surface. Allow to cool at room temperature and set completely, about 2 hours.
• Run a spatula around the sides of the baking dish, loosen and lift the caramel, and move onto a board or clean surface.
• Slice the caramel into 8 (1-inch-wide) strips, then across into 1/2-inch pieces, so you have about 72 caramels. Roll the sides of each piece in more toasted coconut. Wrap as individual sweets using 4- to 5-inch squares of parchment, wax paper, or cellophane, or use store-bought candy wrappers, twisting the ends to seal. Store at room temperature in a cool dry place. Caramels will keep stored at room temp for up to 7 days or frozen after wrapping for up to 1 month.

COCONUT CARAMEL CORN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200*F In a pot, mix brown sugar, corn syrup and coconut oil. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add baking soda, cream of tartar and salt. Mix well. Pour over the popcorn and carefully mix. Pour caramel popcorn in a deep dish roasting pan and bake for 40 minutes, stirring after 20 minutes. Remove from oven and stir for 3 - 5 minutes or until popcorn cools. This will prevent the popcorn from clumping.

COCONUT-CARMEL POPCORN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment. Heat oil and 3 popcorn kernels in a large, heavy pot over medium-high until kernels have popped. Add remaining kernels; swirl to coat in oil.
• Cover pot and remove from heat 30 seconds. Return to heat and cook, covered, until popping slows, 2 to 3 minutes. Immediately transfer popcorn to a large heatproof bowl; stir in coconut.
• In a saucepan, bring brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until slightly thickened, 3 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Pour over popcorn, stirring to coat. Transfer mixture to prepared baking sheet, spreading in an even layer.
• Sprinkle with salt and bake, stirring occasionally, until popcorn is just golden, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes. Caramel popcorn can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
