AUTHENTIC THAI YELLOW CURRY WITH CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat.
• Add the curry paste to the oil, and stir-fry until fragrant, about two minutes. Take care to scrape any bits that stick to the bottom of the pot with your spoon.
• Spoon in the coconut solids from the top of the can first, and allow it to fry with the paste for a minute. Stir in the rest of the coconut milk (or coconut cream) and 1 cup of chicken stock. If you would like the curry to be thinner/soupier, then you can add 1 more cup of stock. Bring to a low boil, then turn the stove down to a simmer.
• Stir in the potatoes. When the potatoes are about halfway cooked through, stir in the carrots and onions.
• Once the carrots are almost fork-tender, add in the thinly sliced chicken and cook for two or three minutes, until the chicken is just cooked through and tender. Pay attention not to overcook the chicken, this process doesn't take long.
• Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the fish sauce, salt, and sugar, adjusting each to suit your tastes.
• Serve the curry in bowls, over jasmine rice. Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges.

YELLOW THAI CHICKEN COCONUT CURRY

Steps:

• To a large skillet, add the oil, onion, and sauté over medium-high heat until the onion begins to soften about 5 minutes; stir intermittently.
• Add the chicken and cook for about 5 minutes, or until chicken is done; flip and stir often to ensure even cooking.
• Add the garlic, turmeric, ginger, coriander, and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant; stir frequently.
• Add the curry paste, coconut milk, carrots, and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to medium, and allow mixture to gently boil for about 5 minutes, or until liquid volume has reduced as much as desired and thickens slightly.
• Add the spinach, pepper, and stir until the spinach has wilted.
• Taste the curry and add the optional but recommended lime juice (brightens the flavor of the dish), cilantro, optional light brown sugar (balances the heat), optional salt (I did not add any because the curry paste has salt in it), and add extra of any of the spices already used or more curry paste, if desired and to taste.

MEILING'S YUMMY THAI YELLOW CURRY

Steps:

• Heat oil in pan on medium heat and add curry paste. Stir fry until fragrant.
• Add chicken and cook for about 2 minutes.
• Add coconut milk, fish sauce, sugar, paprika, and lime zest or kaffir leaves.
• Continue to simmer chicken for about 10 minutes, then add potatoes.
• Add other veggies about 5 minutes after potatoes.
• Total cooking time after adding chicken to pan is ~30 minutes.
• Serve with rice. I like to use brown rice because it is healthy. I cook the brown rice for about 20 minutes before adding white rice (I use calrose) -- it makes a great mixture that is much healthier than plain white rice.
• Notes on ingredients --
• Curry: I have found the brand Mae Ploy is sold in generous sizes and is very reasonably price (it comes in a 14 oz round cardboard carton which is refrigerated after opening and lasts a LONG time, and I paid about $2.50 in an asian market).
• Fish Sauce: I have been very happy with the asian market brand Viet Huong Three Crabs Brand (there's a white square with 3 green crabs on the center of the label).
