Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 kg Pork Shoulder (cut into 1 1/2 inch strips)
6 tbsp Water
4 tbsp Canola oil
4 tsp Cornstarch
2 cup Water
2 tbsp Lime juice
2 tsp Kosher salt
4 Japanese Eggplants (cut into 1 inch chunks)
2 cup Coconut cream
1/2 cup Red curry paste
2 tbsp Brown sugar or Palm sugar
1.5 cups Butternut squash (diced)
2 cups Coconut milk (mixed with 2 cups of water)
4 Red Thai Chiles (sliced, seeds removed)
2 cup Thai basil leaves
12 Lime leaves (thinly sliced)
4 tbsp Fish sauce

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl combine water, oil, cornstarch and salt. Add the sliced pork shoulder to the bowl and mix well. Cover and marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together water, lime juice and salt. Add eggplant chunks to the bowl and soak to prevent the eggplant from turning brown. Set aside. Drain and rinse before cooking.
  • In a large wok over high heat, heat the coconut cream until it bubbles, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the red curry paste, brown sugar, pork, and squash and stir to mix. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring often, for approximately 5 minutes. Add the thin coconut milk and continue cooking, stirring for 15 minutes.
  • Add the eggplant and cook, stirring constantly to fully submerge the eggplant to prevent from discolouring. Add the chiles, Thai basil leaves, lime leaves and fish sauce. Mix well and cook for another minute. Season to taste then remove from the heat.
  • Serve Thai Red Pork Curry with steamed rice.
