GREEN CURRY WITH SWEET POTATO AND AUBERGINE (EGGPLANT)



Green Curry with Sweet Potato and Aubergine (Eggplant) image

An ace curry--traditional, vegetarian, and tasty as all else! An indian dish, when I serve this up, my mates, family, or peers are quite chuffed and I'm always asked for the recipe. Any sort of rice can be used; I suggest cooking jasmine rice ahead of time and keeping it warm until curry is done, then serving it and pouring the chili over or next to it.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

Pork and marinade:
1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 pork tenderloins (about 2 1/4 pounds total)
Cumin-spiced pumpkin seeds:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3/4 cup shelled pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Kosher salt
Curry sauce and assembly:
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 small shallot, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
1/4 cup green Thai curry paste
1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
1 14-ounce can unsweetened coconut milk
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon (packed) light brown sugar
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • For pork and marinade:
  • Combine soy sauce, orange juice, maple syrup, and sesame oil in a large resealable plastic bag. Add pork and seal bag. Chill, turning occasionally, at least 8 hours or up to 1 day.
  • For cumin-spiced pumpkin seeds:
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pumpkin seeds and toast, shaking pan often, until seeds are brown, about 4 minutes. Add cumin seeds, then gradually add sugar, then lime juice, tossing constantly to coat seeds with melted sugar and juice. Transfer pumpkin seed mixture to a foil-lined baking sheet; spread out and let cool. Season with salt.
  • For curry sauce and assembly:
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add shallot and garlic and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add curry paste and lime zest and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add coconut milk and bring just to a boil, stirring and scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pan; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture is reduced by half, 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Transfer coconut milk mixture to a blender. Add cilantro, lime juice, brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons water and blend until smooth. With motor running, drizzle in remaining 2 tablespoons oil and blend until creamy. Season curry sauce with salt and pepper, return to pan, and cover to keep warm.
  • Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Remove pork from marinade; pat dry. Grill pork, turning often, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 140°F, 15-20 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes.
  • Slice pork and serve with curry sauce and cumin-spiced pumpkin seeds.
  • DO AHEAD: Cumin-spiced pumpkin seeds and curry sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Store pumpkin seeds airtight at room temperature. Cover and chill curry sauce.

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 lb Thai apple eggplants (see cooks' note, below)
2 tablespoons to 1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 to 1/2 cup Thai red curry paste
1 1/2 lb pork tenderloin, halved lengthwise, then sliced crosswise 1/4 inch thick
1/3 cup julienne strips peeled fresh or frozen grachai (lesser galangal or wild ginger; thawed if frozen) or drained bottled grachai, rinsed, or ginger
3 oz Chinese long beans or green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
8 canned baby corn, rinsed, drained, and halved lengthwise
1 1/2 cups Thai chicken stock
3 tablespoons nam pla (Asian fish sauce; preferably Thai)
5 (4-inch-long) fresh or frozen Kaffir lime leaves (sometimes called bai makroot)
1 fresh chee fah chile or 2 red jalapeño chiles, thinly sliced crosswise and seeds discarded
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup loosely packed bai grapao (holy basil leaves)
Accompaniment: Thai pickled garlic (gratiam dong)
Special Equipment
a large (6-qt) wok

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have green curry paste, you can make your own using a recipe online or from a cookbook.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pork or eggplant, as they can become tough.
