COCONUT CURRY SHRIMP

Leave a comment

Satisfy your curry craving tonight with this mouthwatering  Coconut Curry Shrimp that contains a fusion of flavor. 

This Coconut Curry Shrimp is bursting with flavors from around the World.

As it contains two different types of curry flavors in it. 

Think Thailand meets Jamaica! 

And trust me it is super simple to make. 

If you have never tried Red Thai Curry before, I encourage you to give it a try. 

Some of the ingredients of RED THAI CURRY paste includes “Lemongrass”; “Galangal” , “Kaffir lime leaves” and Bird’s Eye Thai chilies. 

HOW TO MAKE COCONUT CURRY SHRIMP

  • Red Thai Curry Paste * see the picture below for my favorite brand
  • Jamaican Curry Powder
  • Thick Coconut milk * skip the watered down varieties
  • Shrimp
  • Cilantro
  • Green peppers
  • Onion
  • Limes
  • Rice

Our favorite “RED THAI CURRY PASTE”

The shrimp is curried to perfection and has become one of our new households favorites. 

It is very similar to my Jamaican Curry Shrimp and if your interested in that recipe.

It is also a favorite in our household.

The difference between that recipe and this recipe is that here we are adding tomatoes and omitting the scotch bonnet peppers and replacing that with a bit of “Red Thai Curry” paste. 

Both recipes are amazing and I encourage you to try this one and that one separately. 

So if you like curry as much as me, then you are sure to love this recipe. We are infusing it also with salt and pepper, tomatoes and coconut milk that help to bring all those curry flavors alive.

Keep in mind you will want to use a good quality coconut milk, one that is not to watery. When it comes to the tomatoes you can choose fresh or canned.

Beef Panang Curry with Peanut Sauce

Leave a comment

This Beef Panang Curry with Peanut Sauce is an authentic recipe that hails from Thailand. It is well known for it’s rich and creamy peanut flavor.

I wanted to recreate one of my favorite Thai dishes. Being Thai is always so full of color and flavors, I think I nailed it with this one. 

Your defiantly going to want to keep this recipe in your books. 

WHAT DOES PANANG MEANS

To sit crossed legged, this recipe is an ancient dish that dates back to the 1800. 

WHAT IS BEEF PANANG CURRY

It is a poplar Thai dish that is sure to please everyone. Even if you don’t like peanut butter much, I’m sure this recipe will change all that for you.

IS BEEF PANANG CURRY HOT

It has some heat from the /…… but it is not considered a hot dish. Rather mellow and full of flavor!

WHAT IS MADE PANANG BEEF CURRY MADE WITH

Most traditional Panang Curry have: Red Thai Curry Paste, Fish sauce, Coconut Milk, Kaffir Lime Leaves, Palm Sugar and Red peppers in it.

However you can mix and match some of the ingredients to your liking. 

As you will see below (and that i did for this recipe)

  • Easy fry sliced beef or thinly sliced beef against the grain
  • Fresh spinach
  • Bean sprouts
  • Shredded red cabbage
  • Shredded carrots
  • Sliced Onion
  • Peanut Butter
  • Olive oil

HOW TO MAKE BEEF PANANG CURRY

You can use any Red Thai Curry Paste you’d like. The one that you see above is my favorite!!

  • Start by adding fish sauce and oil in a medium sized bowl and mix with a fork. Then add in the sliced beef and coat, marinade the beef for 20 minutes. 
  • Meanwhile, in a large wok add in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. 
  • Add in the Red Curry Paste and cook on low heat for a few minutes, string as you go. 
  • Next add in the brown sugar and cook till the sugar is dissolved.
  • Add in the marinaded beef and cook till the beef is near done. 
  • If it is getting dry add some water, 2 tbsp at a time. 
  • Add in the spinach and simmer on low heat till wilted. 
  • Garnish with fresh carrots, red cabbage and bean sprouts. 
  • And a dollop of PEANUT SAUCE. (RECIPE IN THE CARD BELOW)

NOTE: Feel free to squeeze a bit of lime juice overtop or add in 3 Kaffir Lime leaves to the recipe and remove before serving. 

WHAT ARE KAFFIR LIME LEAVES

Kaffir lime leaves are an aromatic Asian leaf most often used in Thai, Indonesian and Cambodian recipes. They have a spiced-citrus flavour which is a lot lighter and zestier than a bay leaf or curry leaf. Perfect for lifting a coconut-based broth or fragrant fish curry. Source: What are Kaffir Lime Leaves

WHAT MEAT IS BEST WITH PANANG CURRY

Really, you can use chicken or pork as well. But I much prefer it with sliced beef as you will see in this recipe.

I hope you give this delicious recipe a try, you are going to love it!

And that is a promise guys 🙂 

Until next time, see you in the kitchen.

Healthy Seafood Soup

Leave a comment

This Healthy Seafood Soup is something I came up with most recently. I never followed any recipes, rather just made it out of a craving for something. “Different”. 

Today, I’m sharing with you my recipe for this delicious “Seafood Soup” that is out of this World tasty!

HOW TO MAKE SEAFOOD SOUP?

My soup utilizes fresh shrimp, bok choy and mushrooms. Along with canned clams and chicken stock that helps to add depth of flavor along with red thai curry paste, soya and garlic/ginger spices.

You can always use spinach instead instead of the boy choy if desired!

If you love seafood you’re going to love this soup!

The brown pieces in this soup. That you see in the picture above. Is not meat, rather Chinese shiitake mushrooms. You can also omit those for cremini if you’d prefer. 

I made this soup now three times since, and trust me. This recipe is a keeper!

It is not like any seafood soup recipe out their. As there is no cream, milk or sugar added. Rather it utilized natural flavors and has depths of flavor that make it a true seafood soup.

I used just a hint of “Red Thai Curry Paste” to heat it up and add extra flavor. You can always use “Red Pepper Flakes ” instead however the flavor will be a bit different.

My recipe calls for “3 cans of clams”. However if your wanting to use fresh whole clams you can as well.  Also you can use either “Red Thai Curry Paste” in this soup.

Also there’s only one brand I would recommend and use, see the picture below. Or you can also use “Red Pepper flakes” instead if you’d like. I much prefer the paste as it adds just that extra layer of flavor. 

Also I used Thai Rice Noodles, see picture below for the brand I prefer.

 

Now, this may seem like an expensive soup to make. But in all honesty, one bowl costs under $5 dollars and that is because this recipe makes a fairly large pot of soup.

Enough to feed 5 or more people, or makes for a few bowls that can be enjoyed over the course of two days.

So if your craving a soup to warm you up, but also want a healthy meal. Then this Seafood soup is sure to hit the spot!

If you are planning to enjoy this soup over a couple of days, then your in for a treat. Because the flavors only develop further.

If you loved this soup? you will also love the following recipes below.

  • Parmesan Tortellini Kale Sausage Soup
    Creamy Spinach Sausage Gnocchi

However if your not into adding broccoli you can also use any of the vegetables I have listed below. Which all go very well in this thai dish too!
