Chicken Curry





Ingredients:
2 Lbs. Skinless & Boneless chicken breast cut into 2 cubes
1 Can coconut creme (14oz.)
1 Tbs. Patis (fish sauce)
1 Medium onion (diced)
1 ½ Cups of green and red bell peppers cut into bite sized pieces
1 Cup Celery cut in ¾ inch pieces
5 Jalapeno peppers (stems removed)
3 Potatoes (quartered)
¼ Cup ginger (julienned)
4 Cloves of garlic (smashed)
¼ Tsp. freshly ground peppercorns
½ Tbs. Crushed pepper flakes (optional)
4 Tbs. Cooking oil

For the Curry Powder:
½ Tsp. Cumin
½ Tsp. Caraway
½ Tbs. Whole White Peppercorns
1 Tbs. Coriander
¼ Tsp. Nutmeg (powder)
½ Tsp. Turmeric (powder)

Cooking Process:
For the curry powder: Begin by roasting all whole spices (cumin, caraway, white peppercorns, and coriander) for 1 minute on high heat. Once they are roasted, pound them using a mortar & pestle or electric spice grinder if you have one. Set aside.

For the chicken breast: Lightly season chicken with 5 Tbs. cooking oil and a pinch of salt & pepper. Mix well and brown on all sides and set aside.

For the potatoes: Brown potatoes on all sides with 5 Tbs. of cooking oil. Set aside.

Cook garlic until golden brown using the remaining cooking oil you used to brown potatoes and chicken. Add the onions when the garlic is golden brown and let them cook until soft.

Add the ginger once the onions are soft and stir it well. Allow the ginger to cook for one minute and then add the chicken you browned earlier.
Let the chicken breast saute for one minute and season it with patis. (fish sauce) Next, add the spices you roasted and pounded earlier along with the ground Nutmeg and ground Turmeric.

Stir well for half a minute and add the coconut creme. Stir coconut creme, return the cover, and allow it to simmer for 10 minutes. Lower your heat and stir coconut creme intermittently during the ten minutes to avoid scorching the coconut creme.

After 10 minutes add the potatoes, stir well, and let the potatoes cook for 5 minutes. After that, add the celery and allow it to cook for 5 minutes before adding the red and green bell peppers.
When the celery is cooked, add the red and green bell peppers and again let it cook for 5 minutes.

At this stage, you can do your taste test and adjust accordingly by adding more salt and pepper if needed. After that, you are ready for your last and final ingredient which is the 5 Jalapeno peppers. Serve Chicken Curry with white steamed rice.

Optional: Garnish Chicken Curry with crushed red pepper flakes.

THAI CURRY SAUCE:
1/2 cup fresh coriander stems and leaves, chopped
1 can good-quality coconut milk
4 green onions, sliced (including green stem)
1 thumb-size piece galangal or ginger, grated
4 cloves garlic
2 Tbsp. fish sauce (available at Asian food stores)
1 Tbsp. regular chili powder (use only 1 tsp. if using Thai or East Indian chili powder)
2 tsp. ground cumin
2 tsp. ground coriander
2 tsp. brown sugar (or more to taste)
1/2 tsp. turmeric
1 tsp. shrimp paste
1 fresh red chili, minced, OR 1/2 tsp. cayenne OR dried crushed chili, OR 1-2 tsp.chili sauce

    CURRY INGREDIENTS:
3-4 fillets of fresh or frozen fish - any type, from sole to salmon
Handful fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 red bell pepper, de-seeded and diced
1 medium tomato, cut into small pieces
Handful of fresh basil
Handful of fresh coriander
Fresh lime or lemon wedges for garnish
Optional: 2-3 kaffir lime leaves, left whole (available at Asian stores, usually in the freezer)
Preparation:

Place all 'Thai Curry Sauce' ingredients in a food processor, chopper, or blender. Process well to form a smooth curry sauce.
Pour the sauce into a wok (or large frying pan) and place over medium to high heat. If you have kaffir lime leaves, add them too. Bring to a boil.
Add fish, mushrooms, and red pepper. Stir well. Reduce heat to medium-high, or until it is simmering nicely. Cover and cook 6-8 minutes.
Add the tomatoes and gently stir in. Continue simmering (covered) for another 2-3 minutes.
Do a taste test for salt and sweetness, adding more fish sauce (instead of salt) until salty enough. If too sour for your taste, add a little more sugar. If too salty or sweet, add 1-2 Tbsp. fresh lime (or lemon) juice.
Spoon the fish with curry sauce and vegetables onto a serving platter or into a serving bowl. Sprinkle with fresh basil and coriander. Garnish with lime or lemon wedges and serve hot with rice. Enjoy!

Chicken Satay with Mango and Ginger Sambal



Serves 4 as a starter

Ingredients

  • 350g skinned chicken breasts

  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh ginger

  • 2 tablespoons light soy sauce

  • 1 teaspoon runny honey

  • 2 tablespoons sesame or sunflower oil

  • 12 bamboo skewers, soaked

  • The sambal

  • 1 stalk lemon grass, core of the stem only, finely chopped

  • 1 large, ripe mango, skinned, stoned and finely diced

  • 1 green apple, peeled and finely diced

  • 1 red chilli, de-seeded and finely chopped

  • 3/4 ribbons pickled ginger or 1 teaspoon

  • Fresh ginger cut into fine matchsticks

  • 2 tablespoons rice or white wine vinegar

Method

Flatten the chicken breasts and place on a board under a sheet of clingfilm, and beat with a rolling pin or the flat of a cleaver or heavy knife then cut into neat ribbons. Combine with the rest of the ingredients and leave to marinate in a cool place for an hour.

Preheat the grill, or, if you are using a charcoal barbecue, light it and let the flames die down before you start cooking, so that you don't scorch the meat. And if you are using wooden skewers, don't forget to soak them, otherwise they will impart an unpleasant charred flavour to your satay. Meanwhile, combine the sambal ingredients and set aside.

Thread the marinated chicken ribbons onto the soaked bamboo skewers, squashing them up a little to allow for shrinkage, which may occur during the cooking process.

Grill fiercely, turning once, till the meat is perfectly cooked through for 3/4 minutes per side should be about right. The honey caramelises most deliciously. Serve with the sambal on the side and accompany with plain cooked rice, Thai jasmine would be ideal, or rice noodles.
