MEILING'S YUMMY THAI YELLOW CURRY



Meiling's Yummy Thai Yellow Curry image

I got this recipe from a Thai cooking class (taught by Meiling Dawson @ Orson Gygi) and modified it just a little. It's very versatile and delicious. Sometimes I use tofu instead of chicken or all veggies. I use whatever vegetables I have on hand... carrots, onions, peppers, broccoli, etc. Beef can also be used or red curry (I'm going to post the beef and red curry in a separate recipe... but the meats and curries are interchangeable. I serve it over cooked rice (I use 1 cup of brown rice which I boil for 20 minutes before adding a cup of white rice... for better health without sacrificing texture or flavor).

Time 50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons yellow curry paste (less for kid-friendly, more for "I love heat")
3/4-1 lb chicken, cut into bite sized pieces (can sub tofu or use extra veggies for vegetarian)
2 (13 1/2 ounce) cans coconut milk (can sub regular milk and 1/2 T cornstarch for one can)
4 tablespoons fish sauce
1 -2 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
lime zest from 4 lime (or 6 kaffir leaves, specialty asian market food)
2 medium potatoes
1 yellow pepper (can use red or orange or green)
3 medium carrots
1 medium onion

Steps:

  • Heat oil in pan on medium heat and add curry paste. Stir fry until fragrant.
  • Add chicken and cook for about 2 minutes.
  • Add coconut milk, fish sauce, sugar, paprika, and lime zest or kaffir leaves.
  • Continue to simmer chicken for about 10 minutes, then add potatoes.
  • Add other veggies about 5 minutes after potatoes.
  • Total cooking time after adding chicken to pan is ~30 minutes.
  • Serve with rice. I like to use brown rice because it is healthy. I cook the brown rice for about 20 minutes before adding white rice (I use calrose) -- it makes a great mixture that is much healthier than plain white rice.
  • Notes on ingredients --
  • Curry: I have found the brand Mae Ploy is sold in generous sizes and is very reasonably price (it comes in a 14 oz round cardboard carton which is refrigerated after opening and lasts a LONG time, and I paid about $2.50 in an asian market).
  • Fish Sauce: I have been very happy with the asian market brand Viet Huong Three Crabs Brand (there's a white square with 3 green crabs on the center of the label).

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons red curry paste (less for kid-friendly, more for "I love heat")
3/4-1 lb beef, cut into small strips (I use Top Sirloin and trim the fat, can sub tofu or use extra veggies for vegetarian)
2 (13 1/2 ounce) cans coconut milk (can sub regular milk and 1/2 T cornstarch for one can)
4 tablespoons fish sauce
1 -2 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
lime zest from 4 lime (or 6 kaffir leaves, specialty asian market food)
2 medium potatoes (original recipe calls for 4 potatoes and no other veggies)
1 yellow pepper (can use red or orange or green)
3 medium carrots
1 medium onion

Steps:

  • Heat oil in pan on medium heat and add curry paste. Stir fry until fragrant.
  • Add beef and cook for about 2 minutes.
  • Add coconut milk, fish sauce, sugar, paprika, and lime zest or kaffir leaves.

Tips:

  • Use good quality ingredients, especially the curry paste. The better the paste, the better the curry will be.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the ingredients to your own taste. If you like it spicier, add more chili paste. If you like it more sour, add more lime juice.
  • If you don't have all the ingredients on hand, don't worry. You can substitute other vegetables or protein. For example, you could use tofu instead of chicken, or broccoli instead of bell peppers.
  • Serve the curry with rice, noodles, or roti bread. This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Meiling's Yummy Thai Yellow Curry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's packed with flavor and is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new Thai curry recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed.
