Thai Red Curry Chicken

Friends for a meal are easy to find, friends until end of life are difficult to find. - Thai Proverb

Who gives a damn about friends. There is no concept of friends and love in these modern times.

Anyway

The Thai proverb was just my lame attempt to start this Thai recipe that I picked up from my good friend Mehvish Abubaker's blog journalofafoodaholic.blogspot.com which I don't know why she has abandoned.

Thai Red Curry Chicken is name of this spicy recipe. If you want to burn your whole existence or if you want to set your loved ones on fire I will suggest you to make this crimson delight for them.

It's extremely easy to make if you have Thai Red Curry paste but what will ease bring you humans?

Let's make Thai Red Curry paste first.

For Thai Red Curry paste you need:

Dried red chili 15-20

Onion 1/2

Garlic Paste 1 teaspoon

Ginger Paste 1 teaspoon

Salt 1 teaspoon

Turmeric powder 1/4 teaspoon

Cumin 1 teaspoon

Coriander whole 1 teaspoon

Black pepper crushed 1/2 teaspoon

Water 1/2 cup








Soak the red chilies in hot water for an hour.







After that drain the water and add the chilies plus all the mentioned ingredients in a blender. Grind until it becomes a fine paste.








Take out the paste and put it aside. Let it cool down.


Remember whenever cooking Asian cuisines  with rice, always cook rice before the gravy because the rice will stay fresh for a longer time than the gravy.








Now let's get down to our Thai business.


Ingredients:

Chicken 1/2 kg cut in cubes or slices

Lemon Juice 1 tablespoon

Coconut milk 1 cup

Sugar 1 teaspoon

Salt 1.5 teaspoon

Red curry paste 1/2 cup heaped

Fish Sauce 1 tablespoon

Oil 1/4 cup

Green Chilies 4-5 slices









Add oil to a non stick pan. Fry the chicken on high heat until its completely cooked.









Add the Thai red curry paste and stir fry it for 2-3 minutes more.






Add salt, sugar, lemon juice, fish sauce and coconut milk. Cook it to your desired gravy thickness.









Add green chilies and cook it for a minute. Thai Red Curry Chicken is ready to be served now. Easy lemon squeezy.







Set up a nice plate for someone you love.


Ladies and gentlemen shake your taste-buds for Thai Red Curry Chicken.
