Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons Thai green curry paste
Two 13.5-ounce cans coconut milk
One 14-ounce bag plain frozen meatballs, thawed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Two 16-ounce packages fresh zucchini noodles (zoodles)
1 red Thai bird chile, sliced very thin on the bias
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
2 teaspoons toasted black sesame seeds
2 teaspoons toasted white sesame seeds
1 lime, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large saucepan or wide pot over medium heat. Add curry paste and bloom in the oil, stirring frequently, until very fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Add thawed meatballs and continue to simmer, stirring frequently, until meatballs are heated through, another 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in another large pan over medium-high heat. Add the zoodles and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until zoodles are warmed through and some of their moisture has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
  • Evenly divide the zoodles among 4 bowls. Ladle curry over zoodles and top each with a few meatballs. Top each with sliced Thai bird chiles, basil, cilantro and black and white sesame seeds. Serve with lime wedges.

ZUCCHINI BREAD WITH COCONUT



Zucchini Bread with Coconut image

My favorite recipe for a zucchini bread with a hint of coconut. Make sure to squeeze out as much liquid from the zucchini as possible after grating, otherwise the cake can get too mushy.
