GRILLED LOBSTER TAILS WITH GREEN CURRY-MANGO DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobsters and boil until just cooked through, about 12 to 15 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the grill to medium-high. Drain the lobsters and put them in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Then drain the lobsters well, remove the tail from the lobster, and carefully remove the tail meat from the shell.
• Skewer each tail onto 2 skewers so that the meat lies flat. Brush the tails with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until slightly charred.
• Place the lobster skewers on a platter and drizzle with some of the sauce over top. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and garnish with lime wedges. Top with dollops of caviar, if desired. Serve the remaining sauce in small bowls for individual dipping.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add garlic, ginger, and serrano chile and cook for 1 minute. Add the curry paste and cook for 2 minutes. Add mangoes and water, stir well, and cook until the mango is soft, about 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a blender (see *Cook's Note below). Add the lime juice, cilantro, and honey and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the remaining 1/2 cup oil and blend until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

LAMB MEATBALLS IN GREEN CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. To make the meatballs, mix the ground lamb, bread crumbs, egg, cumin, garam masala, and salt together in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 4 hours.
• 2. To make the sauce, heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, ginger, and chile and stir well. Open the can of coconut milk. Spoon out and measure 1/2 cup of the thick coconut milk that has risen to the top. Add to the saucepan with the cumin and garam masala. Cook until the onion mixture is softened and the coconut milk is reduced and looks oily, about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup water, the cilantro, tamarind concentrate, and remaining coconut milk (about 1 1/4 cups). Whisk well and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, whisking occasionally, until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.
• 3. Using your hands rinsed under cold water, shape the meat mixture into 24 equal small meatballs. Transfer to a plate. Carefully add the meatballs to the simmering sauce and cover with the lid ajar. Simmer until the sauce is thickened and the meatballs are cooked through with no sign of pink, about 20 minutes. Season with salt. Serve hot.

SAKE KASU-MARINATED SEA BASS WITH COCONUT GREEN CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Make marinade:
• Peel and chop gingerroot. In a blender combine gingerroot with remaining marinade ingredients and blend until smooth.
• Arrange sea bass in a 2-inch-deep dish just large enough to hold fish in one layer and pour marinade over it, turning fish to coat well. Marinate fish, covered and chilled, at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. and wrap handle of a 12-inch non-stick skillet with a triple-layer of foil, shiny side out, if handle is not ovenproof. Remove fish from marinade, letting excess marinade drip off, and put on a plate. Discard excess marinade. In non-stick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sear fish on 1 side only until golden brown, about 3 minutes. With tongs turn fish over and transfer skillet to middle of oven. Roast fish until just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve sea bass with curry sauce.

GINGER-SCALLION MEATBALLS WITH GREEN CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place a rack in top third of oven; preheat to 450°F. Grease a rimmed baking sheet with 1 Tbsp. oil. Vigorously mix pork, scallions, egg, ginger, 1 tsp. salt, and remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl with a wooden spoon until mixture is shaggy and lightens slightly in color, about 1 minute.
• Working one at a time, scoop out heaping 1-tablespoonful portions and roll into balls; arrange on prepared baking sheet. Bake meatballs until cooked through and browned on top, 8-10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat coconut cream and curry paste in a large skillet over medium-high, stirring occasionally, until bubbling, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir in spinach and remaining 1 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring often, until spinach is wilted, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a blender and purée until smooth. Add lime juice and blend to combine.
• Divide noodles or rice among plates and arrange meatballs on top. Pour sauce over and top with coconut. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.

COCONUT GREEN CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Peel gingerroot and finely chop. Discard outer leaf from lemongrass and trim root end. Thinly slice lower 8 inches of stalk and in a 2- to 3-quart saucepan combine with gingerroot and mirin. Boil mixture until mirin is reduced to about 3 tablespoons. Add white wine and boil until liquid is reduced to about 1/4 cup. Add coconut milk and cream and boil, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly. Pour sauce through a fine sieve into a bowl and stir in curry paste. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Sauce may be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered. Reheat sauce before serving.

COCONUT MANGO GREEN CURRY COCKTAIL SAUCE

Steps:

• Put all ingredients except the cilantro into a sauce pot and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered for about 10-15 minutes.
• Turn off heat and cool for a few minutes. Place in a blender or use a hand held blender to puree mixture.
• Place back in the sauce pot, cook over medium to medium-low heat and reduce to your desired thickness.
• When making this sauce for shrimp cocktail, I like it much thicker so I did use about a tablespoon of cornstarch -- made a slurry -- and brought back up to a boil to thicken a bit. If you do this, however, do not use too much cornstarch that would alter the flavor.
• Chill the sauce before serving. Add cilantro right before serving.
• This sauce can also be used as a sauce for any other dishes -- chicken, vegetables, etc. On the heat scale, I would place it as a 2 out of 5 -- a little kick but not much. Add additional Serranos if you desire more heat.
