We decided to do "lessons" every once in a while so that we can swap ideas on meals that we might all make already but we can share our own spin. For our first lesson, Lose taught us (my sisters, Hannah and I) how to make her famous Thai Curry and I taught her how to make one her faves - oreo cheesecake cupcakes. It was a blast! We might've crossed boundaries with our "baby oil" and garage stories but it was all in good fun! Now if only we could get the dang cat and dog to stay far enough away for Miss Nane to get comfy! ;-)
Here are a few pictures of us making Lose's yummy dish along with the recipe for her yummy curry. Keep in mind that this was a meal fit for about 20 so you can scale down a bit if you don't need as much. Enjoy cause we sure did!!
Thai Curry Ingredients -
4 packs (or what seemed like 10 pounds) Chicken thighs skinned, boned and cut into bite sized pieces
1 huge can of coconut milk
2 jars of "Thai" brand red curry paste
2 packs of sliced mushrooms
20 bell peppers in all different colors
1 bunch of fresh basil
Good ole steamed rice.
We started by cooking the chicken in a little bit of oil with garlic, salt and pepper just until it was lightly browned.
Then after slicing all of the bell peepers and mushrooms they got thrown in with the chicken.
While the chicken and veggies were getting all tender, Lose heated the coconut milk in a separate pot and then added 1 and 1/2 jars of the red curry paste.
Once the coconut milk and curry was warm and bubbly we drained the fat from the chicken mixture and added the coconut milk mixture to the pot of chicken and veggies.
The final step was the break the fresh basil and add it into the mix. That was my FAVORITE part! Fresh herbs are so yummy!
And there you have it! Easy right?!?! Lose's super yummy Thai curry.
We ate it with steamed rice and it was deelish! Thanks Lose! Now whens the next lesson forreal man!?! LOL
