Spicy Pepper Coconut Yellow Thai Curry
Spicy Pepper Coconut Yellow Thai Curry
Last few days before school starts it seems like calm before the storm, enjoyed the last few months without having the pressure of drop off’s and pick ups, few more days before the start of vicious cycle.
This summer has been fun and relaxing got a chance to spend some quality time with parents and family, mom is going to leave in few days and I am already sad about it, but glad that she was able to spend time with us. Did quite a bit of shopping with my mom last few weeks we explored quite a lot of restaurants, malls and all my favorite stores and one of them being Trader Joe’s, I am a huge fan of TJ’s picked up Yellow Thai curry sauce and yesterday after ages got a chance to cook something for my mom and decided to spruce up the yellow curry sauce with pepper and coconut, so here goes the recipe ...
Ingredients
* 1 can of coconut milk coconut milk
* 1 big tbsp. of freshly ground pepper
* 1-cup yellow curry paste/sauce (My recommendation Trader Joes Thai Yellow curry sauce)
* 1 small cup potato, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch pieces
* 2 carrots, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds
* 1 small onion, chopped
* 1 small zucchini, chopped
* 1 small cup of broccoli cut into small florets
* 1 small zucchini, chopped
* 1 small cup of broccoli cut into small florets
* 1/2 red/green bell pepper, cored, seeded and chopped into small pieces
* 1 Thai chili optionally Jalapeno
* ½ cup green onions
* 1 cup of Thai basil
1 big tbsp freshly grounded pepper
1 big tbsp freshly grounded pepper
Process
1. Bring the coconut milk and yellow curry paste to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until smooth, about 1 minute. If the mixture seems thick add little bit water to thin it out.
2. Add the potato, carrots, zucchini,onion, bell pepper, broccoli, and chili, basil sprigs and pepper.
3. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes.
4. Remove the lid and continue to simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and serve hot over steamed hot rice.

I love TJ's Yellow curry paste.. Gives so much flavor to curries without having to sweat on making the paste ourselves. Love your chopped veggies--awesome knife skills :-)

Looks very good, nice pictures. And I like that you're not using fish sauce. It's probably the one thing I actually don't like!

Did you mean 1 cup of Trader Joe's yellow curry SAUCE? Big difference between SAUCE and PASTE for this recipe. Considering Trader Joe's does not make a yellow curry PASTE, I assume you mean SAUCE. I learned the hard way on this one, which is why you always need to pay attention to details.
Adam,
Thanks for pointing out, I did use TJ's curry sauce and have update the recipe accordingly.
