SLOW COOKER THAI CHICKEN CURRY

Bell peppers add a touch of sweetness to this spicy Thai dish. This is my mom's recipe, to which I've added a touch of flair! Use more coconut milk if you like it saucy--I prefer it thick and chunky. Coconut and raisins as garnish bring the heat of the curry down a notch.

THAI GREEN CHICKEN CURRY IN A SLOW COOKER



THAI GREEN CHICKEN CURRY IN A SLOW COOKER image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Chicken

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 kg chicken thigh fillets, cut into chunky pieces
6 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 large carrot, scrubbed and sliced
1 red capsicum, sliced
1 large zucchini, sliced
1 cup button mushrooms
2-3 chillies, seeded and thinly sliced
1/3 cup Thai green curry paste,
2 x 400 ml cans light coconut milk
1½ cups snow peas, topped and tailed
1 cup frozen baby peas
1/3 cup raw cashews
To serve Brown rice
Coriander Sprigs

Steps:

  • Tip the chicken chunks into the slow cooker along with the potatoes, carrot, capsicum, zucchini, mushrooms and chilli. Mix the curry paste with the coconut milk and pour this into the pot. Stir all the ingredients together mixing together well. Put the slow cooker on for 4 hours and 10 minutes. Our slow cooker only has one setting while some others can be set to low, medium and high. I would imagine that you would want to set your cooker to medium. Forty-five minutes before the end of cooking time, add the snow peas, baby peas and cashews. Serve with rice and topped with some sprigs of coriander if you like.

THAI CHICKEN MEATBALL CURRY (SLOW COOKER)



Thai Chicken Meatball Curry (Slow Cooker) image

From "150 Best Indian, Thai, Vietnamese and More Slow Cooker Recipes" by Sunil Vijayakar. I actually had ground turkey and that worked beautifully in this recipe. I also modified the recipe to eliminate the frying, which also worked out really well, and am posting both versions. This is rather spicy, so if you are uncertain reduce the number of chile peppers or amount of curry paste.

Time 5h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 3/4 lbs ground chicken or 1 3/4 lbs ground turkey
2/3 cup fresh breadcrumb (I actually used panko)
3/4 cup chopped cilantro, divided
1/4 cup chopped lemongrass (I used lemongrass paste)
3 long red chili peppers, minced
2 tablespoons oil (optional)
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
1 tablespoon tomato paste
salt, to taste (I used none)
ground black pepper, to taste (I used none)

Steps:

  • Mix chicken or turkey, breadcrumbs, half of the cilantro, lemongrass and chile peppers in a large bowl, combining thoroughly.
  • If not frying, drop walnut-sized meatballs into a 4 qt slow cooker (I coat with a little oil to make cleanup easier). Cover and cook on High for about 1 hour to set the meatballs. (For all I know you don't need to do this - it might work just as well with the sauce added immediately - but this is how I did it).
  • Combine the remaining ingredients except the cilantro in a small bowl; pour over the meatballs, reduce to Low and cook for 4 hours, or cook on High for 2 hours.
  • If frying, form the meat into walnut-sized meatballs. Heat oil in a large skillet and quickly fry the meatballs until browned. Transfer to slow cooker.
  • Make the sauce as in Step 3 and pour into the frying pan, stirring to scrape up the fond; pour over the meatballs and cook on Low for 6 hours or on High for 3 hours.
  • Serve immediately with steamed rice, garnished with the remaining cilantro.
