2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup vegetable stock

RED THAI CURRY CHICKEN STIR-FRY



Red Thai Curry Chicken Stir-Fry image

Not your typical soupy Thai curry. I "ad-libbed" this, just adding some red Thai curry paste to an otherwise typical stir-fry. It was hot, spicy and, for us, very yummy. I always use Mae Ploy brand curry paste - I find it the most authentic and flavoursome.

Provided by Tracy Lee

Categories     Curries

Time 27m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon olive oil (less if using non-stick pan)
450 g chicken thighs, cut into bite size pieces
2 bell peppers (any colour, sliced)
1 small red onion, chopped
1 red chili pepper, chopped
1 medium carrot, julienned
1/4 cup water
25 g Thai red curry paste
2 teaspoons Thai fish sauce (nahm plah)

Steps:

  • Heat your pan or pot, and spray lightly with olive oil.
  • Remove excess fat and skin from chicken (don't be overly diligent - a little fat is useful in the cooking!) and cut into bite-size pieces. Set aside.
  • Add chopped onion and hot chili pepper to the pre-heated pan; cook on high heat until onion is slightly soft (1 to 2 minutes).
  • Add carrot, cut into thick Julienne strips.
  • Add the curry paste, and stir-fry well.
  • Add water to help dissolve and mix the curry paste. The heat from the pan will evaporate the water quickly, but it still loosens up the paste.
  • Add the chicken and bell peppers (cut lengthwise).
  • Stir frequently; make sure all the paste is dissolved. The oil from the chicken should help this, too.
  • Add Thai fish sauce.
  • When the meat is thoroughly cooked, remove from heat.
  • Serve on a bed of Jasmin or Basmati rice, or other rice of your choice.
