Best 6 Vegetable Kebabs With Coriander Coconut Cream Sauce Recipes

FRAGRANT CHICKEN, CORIANDER & COCONUT CURRY

Steps:

• Whizz together the coconut milk and coriander (leaves and stalks) in a food processor, then tip out and set aside. Quickly wipe out the machine, add the garlic, ginger and chillies, then whizz with enough water to make a paste.
• Heat the oil in a large non-stick pan. Brown the chicken well on all sides, then remove. Add the onion, cloves and cinnamon and fry until lightly coloured. Add the chilli paste to the pan, then cook until most of the liquid has evaporated.
• Return the chicken, then stir in the powdered spices and coconut paste. Bring to a boil, cover the pan, then cook for 40-50 mins, removing the lid halfway through cooking so the sauce can thicken. Check the chicken is cooked, stir in the tamarind paste, season to taste, then add a splash of water if the sauce has thickened too much.

MIXED VEGETABLES WITH COCONUT SAUCE (AVIYAL)

Steps:

• Bring potatoes, carrots, chile, red pepper flakes, turmeric, 1 cup water, and salt to a boil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy pot, then simmer briskly, uncovered, until vegetables are almost tender, about 5 minutes. Add zucchini and peas and simmer 1 minute more.
• Meanwhile, blend coconut, cumin, cayenne, and remaining 3/4 cup water in a blender or food processor to a medium-fine paste.
• Add coconut mixture to vegetable mixture along with yogurt. Simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender and flavors have blended, 12 to 15 minutes. If mixture becomes too thick to simmer, add more water.
• Serve sprinkled with curry leaves and drizzled with coconut oil, if desired.

• Thread lamb on skewers, alternating with pieces of onion and peppers.
• Combine yogurt, garlic, lemon juice and coriander leaves and season to taste with salt and pepper.

VEGETABLE KEBABS WITH MUSTARD BASTING SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large saucepan of boiling salted water cook carrots 1 minute. Add yellow squash and zucchini and cook vegetables 5 minutes. Transfer vegetables with a slotted spoon to a large bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking and drain well in a colander. Transfer vegetables to a bowl. (If using larger yellow squash and zucchini cut them into a total of thirty-two 3/4-inch pieces.) In boiling water remaining in pan cook onions 4 minutes and transfer with slotted spoon to bowl of ice and cold water. Drain onions well in colander and peel, leaving root ends intact. Vegetables may be boiled 1 day ahead and chilled in sealable plastic bags.
• In a small bowl whisk together vinegar, mustard, oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Basting sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
• Prepare grill.
• Thread vegetables, alternating them, onto skewers. Brush one side of kebabs with about half of sauce and grill, coated side down, on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 5 minutes. Brush kebabs with remaining sauce and turn. Grill kebabs 5 minutes more, or until squash is tender. (Alternatively, kebabs may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.)
