THAI SHRIMP CURRY

Steps:

• Cook the rice noodles as the label directs. Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic, scallions and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring, until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the curry paste and stir to coat. Add the coconut milk, whisking as you pour. Stir in the fish sauce and sugar. Add 3/4 cup water and bring to a simmer. Cook, whisking occasionally, until thickened, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Add the frozen vegetables to the skillet and cook, stirring, until warmed through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring and flipping occasionally, until just pink, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Divide the noodles among bowls. Top with the shrimp curry and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.

THAI SHRIMP AND VEGETABLE CURRY

Steps:

• In a large deep skillet, heat oil and add onions, garlic and chopped chillies and cook for 1-3 minutes.
• If you are sensitive to volatile odors from heated chillies, just add them when you add the coconut milk, but in any case, vent the cooking area.
• Add the zucchini, mushrooms, and bell pepper to the pan, cooking until they are half-tender.
• Add coconut milk, curry paste, lime leaves, Splenda and fish sauce, stirring mixture until curry paste mingles with the coconut milk.
• Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until vegetables are mostly cooked through.
• Add shrimp to the pan and stir over medium heat, uncovered, until shrimp become pink but are not curled too tightly (tightness makes them tough).
• Either stir basil into the curry or use as a garnish, whichever you prefer.

THAI VEGETABLE CURRY

Steps:

• Bring a saucepan of water to the boil, add the potatoes and cook for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the spice paste: blend the garlic, onion, almonds, coriander, cumin, turmeric, salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons of the oil in a blender or food processor until a smooth paste is formed.
• In a skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil over a medium heat and add the red bell pepper. Cook for 3 minutes, until slightly softened.
• By now the potatoes should have boiled for 10 minutes, so add the cauliflower and broccoli florets to the potatoes in the saucepan and cook for a further 5 minutes.
• Add the spice paste to the red bell pepper in the skillet and cook for a further 4 minutes.
• When the potatoes, broccoli and cauliflower are cooked, remove them from the heat, drain and set aside.
• Add the coconut milk and vegetable stock to the spice paste in the skillet and cook for 3 minutes.
• Stir in the mango chutney. Add the cooked potatoes, broccoli and cauliflower and heat through for 3-4 minutes.
• Serve immediately with freshly cooked rice.
• NB: This keeps well in the fridge and can be reheated in he microwave the next day.

THAI SHRIMP & SPINACH CURRY

Steps:

• Spoon about 1/3 cup of the thick coconut cream from the top of the coconut milk and in a large heavy skillet cook the cream over moderate heat, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until it is thickened slightly.
• Add the curry paste and cook the mixture, whisking, for 1 minute.
• Add the shrimp and sauté the mixture over moderately high heat, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink.
• Add the coconut milk and the naam pla and simmer the mixture, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute, or until the shrimp are just cooked through.
• Transfer the shrimp with a slotted spoon to a bowl, to the skillet add the carrots and the bell pepper, and simmer the mixture for 5 minutes.
• Add the spinach in batches, stirring until each batch is wilted, return the shrimp to the skillet, and simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute.
• Sprinkle the dish with the coriander and serve it with the rice.
