SLOW COOKER MUSSAMAN CURRY

Steps:

• Place the potatoes and onion in a slow cooker.
• Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the beef and garlic together in the melted butter until the beef is browned on all sides. Transfer the beef and garlic to the slow cooker while keeping the beef drippings in the skillet.
• Return the skillet to the medium-high heat. Stir the coconut milk, peanut butter, and curry powder into the reserved beef drippings; cook and stir until the peanut butter melts. Pour the coconut milk mixture into the slow cooker. Turn the slow cooker on to Low; stir the fish sauce, brown sugar, and beef broth into the slow cooker.
• Cook on Low until the beef is fork-tender, 4 to 6 hours. Stir the peanuts into the curry about 30 minutes before serving.

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN MASSAMAN CURRY

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet. Add chicken pieces in batches, cooking until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Place browned chicken in the bottom of a slow cooker. Place potatoes, carrots, and bell peppers on top of the meat in the slow cooker.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the skillet and add onion. Cook until soft and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add to slow cooker. Add red curry paste, ginger paste, and lemongrass paste to the skillet and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in 1 can coconut milk; reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer until reduced by half, about 10 minutes.
• Whisk in remaining 1 can coconut milk, chicken broth, and peanut butter. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until liquid begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Pour sauce over ingredients in the slow cooker; stir gently to combine.
• Set slow cooker to Low and cook until vegetables are tender and chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 4 to 6 hours.
• 20 minutes before serving season with lemon juice, fish sauce, and brown sugar. Stir in 1/2 cup of chopped peanuts. Serve with hot cooked rice and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup of peanuts.

Steps:

• Trim meat of excess fat and sinew and cut into 2-3cm cubes.
• Heat the oil in a heavy-based pot and fry the onion until brown.
• Add the meat, season and continue to brown all over.
• Add curry paste, heat through until fragrant. Add half the coconut cream, lower the heat and cook gently for about 5 minutes.
• Put the potatoes on the bottom of the slow cooker.
• Pour the mix on top of the potatoes.
• Add the water, remaining coconut cream, cinnamon and bay leaves and cook on LOW, covered, for 8 hours.
• In the last hour, season to taste with fish sauce, palm sugar and tamarind paste. (I like to add a few handfuls of peanuts, too).
• Garnish with peanuts and coriander and serve with steamed basmati or jasmine rice.

CROCK POT CURRY (ALOO RAJMA)

Steps:

• Add onions and saute for 2 - 5 minutes.
• Add both cans of Rotel.
• Pour mixture into crockpot. Add potatoes and canned beans to crockpot.
• Allow to crock on low for 6 - 9 hours or on high for 3 - 5 hours, depending on your crockpot.
• Serve over rice or with makki di roti (indian cornbread).

MASSAMAN CHICKEN CURRY

Steps:

• Par boil the potatoes, drain and set aside.
• To make the paste, place the peppercorns, cinnamon, cumin and corriander in a frying pan and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes, or until aromatic.
• Cool the spice mixture, then add it to a food processor, together with the chilli, shallots, ginger, lemongrass, garlic and peanuts. Process until you have a smooth paste.
• Add the oil to a large, heavy based pan, and heat on a medium heat.
• Add the chicken pieces, and cook until browned. You might need to do this in batches.
• Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
• Still on a medium heat, add the spice mixture and fry gently for about 1 minute.
• Add the coconut milk and cook on medium heat for about 5 minutes.
• I like my curry paste super-smooth, so at this stage I remove from heat, cool for a few minutes and then add to a blender, and blend the coconut milk and spice mixture until it's a smooth, creamy mix. Return to the pan. This step is entirely optional.
• Add the sugar to the coconut milk mixture, and cook on medium for a further 3 minutes.
• Return the chicken to the pan and add in the potatoes, bay leaf, cardamon pods, fish sauce and tamarind.
• Bring to the boil, then reduce and gently simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until chicken and potatoes are cooked.
• Add the extra peanuts 5-10 minutes before finish cooking.
• Serve with steamed rice and/or roti.

THAI BEEF MASSAMAN CURRY

Steps:

• Trim meat of excess fat and sinew and cut into 2-3cm cubes.
• Heat the oil in a heavy-based pot and fry the onion until brown.
• Add the meat, season and continue to brown all over.
• From top of the coconut milk tin, scoop out the thick cream and add to the pot.
• Add curry paste, lower the heat and cook gently for about 5 minutes.
• Add the water, remaining coconut milk, cinnamon and bay leaves and simmer, covered, for 1 hour.
• Add the potatoes and cook for another 30 min or until the meat and potatoes are tender. You may need to add a little water as the curry is cooking.
• Season to taste with fish sauce, palm sugar (see TIP) and tamarind paste.
• Garnish with peanuts and coriander and serve with steamed basmati or jasmine rice.
• ---TIP---.
• Shaving palm sugar can be a pain, especially when the sugar is a little dried out. I buy it in discs, so now I just pop a disc in a cup with a little water (about 1 T) and microwave it on high for 30 seconds. Stir, and you will find it dissolves. You can then add this liquid to your curry to taste.

MASSAMAN CURRY

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, heat the oil over moderately low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, five-spice powder, cumin, cayenne, turmeric, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Whisk in the broth and then the coconut milk; bring to a simmer. Stir in the potatoes, cover, and cook over low heat until they are almost tender, about 12 minutes.
• 2. Add the chicken to the sauce, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the peanuts, tomatoes, cilantro, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Turn the heat off, cover, and let steam until the chicken is just done, about 2 minutes longer.
• Menu Suggestion: For this curry, steamed white rice is the only accompaniment you need.
• Wine Recommendation: For this bold curry, bursting with heat, spice, and sweetness, a fresh, aromatic white that won't get pushed around--a chenin blanc from the Loire Valley in France or from California, for example, or a sauvignon blanc from New Zealand--is a good match.
