Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pound medium or large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
2 large carrots (peeled and sliced into 1/2 inch chunks)
1 red bell pepper (diced)
1 teaspoon minced garlic
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste)
salt to taste
3 cups baby spinach leaves
fresh basil, cilantro, or green onions for garnish
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
½ yellow onion (finely chopped)
2 teaspoons fresh ginger (OR 1 teaspoon ground ginger)
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
1 tablespoon thai red curry paste
1 tablespoon sugar
1 15-ounce can coconut milk
2 tablespoons fish sauce
grated zest and juice of one lime
cooked noodles or rice for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the sauce: Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook 5 minutes, or until softened.
  • Add the ginger, turmeric, curry paste and sugar and stir until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Pour in the coconut milk and fish sauce. Bring to a simmer, then lower heat and cook 10 minutes to thicken slightly. Remove from the heat, stir in the lime zest and juice. Cover to keep warm.
  • Prepare the shrimp: Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-heat. Add the carrots and stir to coat with the oil. Lower the heat, cover the pan and cook the carrots 5 minutes, until tender.
  • Turn up the heat to medium-high and add the red bell pepper, shrimp, garlic, cayenne and salt to taste. Cook until the shrimp are no longer pink, 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Add the spinach and curry sauce to the shrimp and stir until the spinach is wilted. Sprinkle with green onion and cilantro (or basil) and serve.

KHAO SOI GAI (NORTHERN THAI COCONUT-CURRY NOODLES WITH CHICKEN)



Khao Soi Gai (Northern Thai Coconut-Curry Noodles With Chicken) image

You'll find khao soi, a deeply fragrant, coconut milk-based stew, throughout Southeast Asia, but the dish is a specialty of Chiang Mai, a city in Northern Thailand. Chicken is simmered in a creamy, spicy-sweet broth, then served over boiled egg noodles and garnished with crunchy fried noodles. (When made with beef, the dish is called khao soi nuea.) This version is adapted from Noree Thai, a restaurant in Los Angeles, which Noree Pla owns with her partner, the chef Fern Kaewtathip. Ms. Pla serves the khao soi she learned from her mother, which requires more than a dozen ingredients, but once you have the ingredients prepared, the dish comes together in less than an hour. For a lighter broth, use about half of the curry paste; for a more pungent khao soi, use it all.

Time 4h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

3 dried red Thai chiles (or chiles de árbol)
2 fresh or dried makrut lime leaves (optional)
15 cilantro stems with leaves (about 1/4 bunch)
2 large shallots or 1 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped
2 (1 1/2- to 2-inch) pieces fresh, unpeeled turmeric, scrubbed and roughly chopped (or 2 tablespoons ground turmeric)
1 (4-inch) piece lemongrass, from the base of the stalk, sliced
1 (3-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
4 large garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon shrimp paste or 2 teaspoons fish sauce (optional)
1/2 teaspoon grated lime zest (preferably from a fresh makrut lime)
3 cups neutral oil
1 (16-ounce) package dried, flat Chinese-style egg noodles, or dried tagliatelle pasta nests
Kosher salt
2 (13-ounce) cans full-fat coconut milk (not shaken or stirred)
2 cups chicken broth (preferably low-sodium)
Kosher salt
8 chicken leg drumsticks (about 2 pounds)
2 to 4 tablespoons fish sauce
2 to 4 tablespoons palm sugar or brown sugar
1/2 cup homemade or store-bought Yunnanese-style pickled mustard greens, for serving
1 shallot, peeled and thinly sliced, for serving
Chile paste or chile oil, for serving
Lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the curry paste: Bring 1/4 cup of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add the dried chiles and makrut lime leaves (if using) to a small bowl; pour the boiling water on top and let steep for 10 minutes.
  • While the mixture steeps, separate the cilantro leaves from the stems; set leaves and any tender stems aside for garnish. Roughly chop cilantro stems and add to a small food processor (or the bowl of a large mortar and pestle) along with the shallots, turmeric, lemongrass, ginger, garlic, curry powder, shrimp paste (if using) and lime zest.
  • Add the soaked chile mixture (including its liquid) and process (or crush with a pestle) until curry paste is smooth, scraping down sides of bowl as needed, about 10 minutes for either method. Curry paste can be made up to 2 weeks ahead; store in a covered container in the refrigerator.
  • Prepare the fried noodles: In a medium (2-quart) saucepan, bring 3 cups neutral oil to 325 degrees over medium-high heat. Add 4 ounces noodles and fry, flipping once or twice, until light brown, 30 to 60 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, transfer noodles to a paper towel-lined plate; set aside until ready to serve. Cool, strain and store remaining oil in a covered jar for another use.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven or pot over medium. Add about 1/4 cup coconut cream, scraped from the top of one of the cans of coconut milk, to the pot and let it melt, about 10 seconds. Add at least half of the curry paste - or more, for a more pungent khao soi - and stir until deeply fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add 1 1/2 cups chicken broth and the remaining coconut milk, and increase heat to medium-high. Bring mixture just to a low boil, about 3 minutes.
  • Use 1 tablespoon salt to season drumsticks, then add them to the boiling curry mixture. Cover, and let simmer until chicken is cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes. Uncover, lower heat, and add remaining 1/2 cup chicken stock along with 1 cup water. (It should be more like soup than stew.) Season to taste with fish sauce, sugar and salt. Turn heat to very low, and cover to keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a large pot. Add 2 teaspoons salt and remaining 12 ounces noodles. Cook until al dente. Drain and portion into four bowls. Add 2 drumsticks to each bowl, and about 2 cups curry broth. Garnish with fried noodles, pickled mustard greens, sliced shallots, chile paste or oil, reserved cilantro leaves and lime wedges. Serve immediately.

THAI COCONUT NOODLES



Thai Coconut Noodles image

These are so good- just something I came up with one day. They are quite spicy, so if you don't like a lot of heat, you might lower the spice the first time you try them. You can also adjust to chicken stock in order to have a thick sauce or a more soupy consistency. I like both. The red pepper is a type of spice, not a mashed up pepper as someone once asked me! I am a vegetarian now and this is still fabulous meat free.
