Black-Eyed Peas with Spinach and Coconut Curry



Yield: 6 servings



Ingredients:



1陆 cups of dried black-eyed peas or 2 cans of black-eyed beans (drained and rinsed)

4 cups water

1 medium onion, finely chopped

3 garlic cloves, finely chopped

1 piece of ginger, peeled and finely chopped

2 small green chilies, finely minced

1 large tomato, finely chopped

10 ozs. of fresh baby spinach leaves or 10 ozs. of frozen spinach (thawed and drained)

salt and pepper to taste

陆 tsp garam masala

陆 tsp turmeric

陆 tsp chili powder

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp ground coriander

1 can of coconut milk (can use the light variety)

4 tbsp oil (vegetable or canola)

freshly chopped cilantro leaves for garnish



Method:



If you are using dried black-eyed peas:



Wash them well in cold water. In a large mixing bowl, cover the black-eyed peas by at least 2 inches of water, cover the bowl and soak overnight on your countertop. When you are ready to use the black-eyed peas, place them in a pressure cooker along with their soaking liquid and use as directed. You may need to add more water if necessary. I recommend cooking the black-eyed peas in a vessel within the pressure cooker. They usually cook in 12-15 minutes (this may vary among pressure cookers) after pressure has been reached. They should be soft and creamy but not mushy.



In a large pot on medium high heat, add the oil. Then add the onions, when they have softened, add the green chilies, ginger and garlic. Stir to combine and add the spices (salt, pepper, garam masala, turmeric, chili powder, ground coriander and the ground cumin). Stir for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is fragrant, and add the tomatoes. Add the black-eyed peas and their cooking liquid (if you used the pressure cooker method)or the canned black-eyed peas. Stir and add salt and pepper to taste. Add the coconut milk, cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer gently for 20-30 minutes. Add the fresh or frozen spinach leaves (roughly chopped). Stir and cook for an additional 5-6 minutes and check your seasonings. Make any necessary adjustments. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro leaves and serve.

Thai Beef Panang - Panang Nua



Beef Panang is great with rice. I also found out that left over beef panang tastes great in a sandwich with toasted bread.



2 Servings



2 tablespoons sugar

4 kaffir lime leaves, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons fish sauce

1 1/2 tablespoon red curry paste

1 cup coconut milk

1 lb beef, sliced



Pour 1/2 of the coconut milk in a pan over medium heat. Add curry paste and break it up to mix it with coconut milk. Keep stiring to prevent bottom from sticking. Lower the heat to simmer if necessary. Simmer until red oil appears. Add the beef and stir to coat the beef with the curry paste. Add sugar, fish sauce and the rest of coconut milk. Let it simmer until the beef is tender and the liquid is reduced to a thick sauce. It should take about half an hour to an hour depending on your heat. Add water if your beef is still tough and let the liquid reduce.



Sprinkle the sliced kaffir lime leaves on top. Serve hot



Chicken Curry - Gang Gai



Chicken curry is so common that you will find it at any to-go curry vendors in Thailand. Chicken curry is eaten with rice or 'kanom jeen' noodles.



You can see chicken curry's popularity when you go to a temple in Thailand; Thai people frequently bring the classic dishes like chicken curry to feed the monks and other temple patrons.

2-4 Servings



3 cups water

3-5 sprigs Thai basil

2 tablespoons fish sauce

1/2 lb eggplant

1 tablespoon red curry paste

1 cup coconut milk

1 chicken breast



I use Thai eggplants, the golf ball size ones. But, they can be difficult to find. Regular eggplants that you find in supermarkets are a good substitute. If you have the Thai eggplants, cut them up into quarters. If you have the regular eggplants, cut them into bite size pieces. Wash and pick the basil leaves.



Cut up the chicken into bite size pieces. If you have this dish in Thailand, you will see that the chicken comes with bones. All parts such as legs and thighs can be used. The bones make the curry more flavorful.



Pour half of the coconut milk into a large pot, over low to medium low heat. Add the red curry paste. Break up the paste and mix it with coconut milk. Stir constantly. Lower the heat if it splatters too much. Add chicken when you see red oil bubbling on top. Stir and coat chicken with curry sauce. Add the eggplant when chicken starts to turn white. Add the rest of the coconut milk and water and the fish sauce. Let it boil until all the eggplant pieces turn dark and tender. The longer you boil the curry, the thicker the curry becomes because the eggplant disintegrates and thickens the sauce. Add the basil leaves just before you serve and make sure the leaves are submerged quickly in the curry to preserve the color.



Serve hot with rice or rice noodles
