Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons oil
1 onion (chopped)
1 clove garlic (finely chopped)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 stalk lemongrass (chopped)
2 kaffir lime leaves (tough central stalk removed, finely sliced)
1 - 1 ½ tablespoons thai red curry paste
1 tablespoon brown sugar
3/4 - 1 cup coconut cream
2 cups chicken stock
400 g crushed tomatoes
400 g agria potatoes (cut into 1 inch cubes)
8 free-range chicken thighs (boneless and skinless)
200 g green beans (trimmed and cut in half)
1 handful coriander/cilantro (chopped)
1 cucumber (sliced)
2 tomatoes (sliced)
3-4 cups steamed rice

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large pot or fry pan on medium heat. Fry onion and garlic for about 3 minutes until soft.
  • Add ground cumin, coriander, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, curry paste, sugar and about 1/4 cup of the coconut cream. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon, so the paste does not stick to the bottom of the pan.
  • Add remaining coconut cream, stock, canned tomatoes and potatoes. Bring to the boil, then lower heat and simmer, partially covered, for 15-20 minutes until potatoes are almost cooked through. Stir curry occasionally while cooking.
  • Add chicken and continue to cook for a further 5-10 minutes until potatoes and chicken are cooked all the way through. In the last 3 minutes of cooking time add beans to cook briefly.
  • Serve curry in a large bowl, garnished with coriander. Serve with steamed brown rice and fresh cucumber and tomato on the side.
