Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs, chopped into bite-sized pieces
1 medium red onion, diced, divided
2 teaspoons brown sugar
freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
1 tablespoon freshly minced ginger
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
6 cups chicken broth, or to taste, divided
1 (13 ounce) can unsweetened coconut milk (not low-fat)
2 tablespoons red curry paste, or more to taste
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 (2 pound) kabocha squash
1 large red bell pepper, diced
2 medium green onions, thinly sliced, or more to taste
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro, or more to taste
¼ cup chopped fresh basil, or more to taste
2 small serrano peppers, thinly sliced
3 medium limes, halved

Steps:

  • Heat vegetable oil in a soup pot over high heat. Add chicken to hot oil; cook, stirring occasionally until browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in 1/2 of the red onion and brown sugar. Cook until onions have softened and sugar starts to caramelize on the bottom of the pan, about 3 minutes. Stir in black pepper, cumin, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Toss in ginger and garlic; stir until sizzling, about 1 minute.
  • Add 4 cups chicken broth and stir to deglaze the bottom of the pot. Bring to a boil. Add coconut milk and curry paste. Add cayenne pepper and bay leaf. Stir in fish sauce. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.
  • Carefully cut squash with a large knife on a cutting board. Remove seeds and peel and discard skin. Cut flesh into bite-sized pieces. You should have about 1 1/2 pounds squash.
  • Add squash to soup and salt to taste. Add remaining chicken broth to cover squash. Simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until pumpkin is just barely tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Stir in remaining red onion, bell pepper, and green onions; cook for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat, and stir in 1/2 cup cilantro and 1/4 cup basil. Taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Ladle into bowls and garnish with more cilantro, basil, green onions, and serrano chiles. Squeeze lime juice into each bowl.

EASY INDIAN-STYLE PUMPKIN CURRY



Easy Indian-Style Pumpkin Curry image

This is a popular dish in Kerala, South India. It's made during the festivals and is an extremely nutritious and tasty preparation rich in antioxidants and vitamins. What's vital to the dish, however, is the process of frying the coconut in the end to season the dish. This imparts a unique flavor and aroma to this curry.

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 cups cubed fresh pumpkin
2 cups water, or as needed
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
salt to taste
½ cup grated coconut
3 dried red chile peppers
1 green chile pepper
2 tablespoons water, or as needed
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon coconut oil, divided
2 dried red chile peppers
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon skinned split black lentils (urad dal)
1 tablespoon grated coconut
6 fresh curry leaves, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Put pumpkin into a large pot. Pour 2 cups water over the pumpkin so the cubes are floating. Season pumpkin and water with turmeric and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until the pumpkin is tender yet firm enough to retain shape, about 15 minutes.
  • Grind 1/2 cup coconut, 3 red chile peppers, green chile pepper, 2 tablespoons water, and cumin seeds in a food processor until you have a paste; stir into the pumpkin mixture and bring again to a boil. Cook until the liquid has thickened and coats the pumpkin cubes, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour the curry into a large serving bowl.
  • Heat 2 teaspoons coconut oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Cook 2 dried red chile peppers, mustard seeds, and black lentils in hot oil until they sputter, 2 to 3 minutes; pour over curry.
  • Heat remaining teaspoon coconut oil in the skillet. Fry 1 tablespoon coconut in the hot oil until completely browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour atop the curry. Garnish dish with curry leaves.
