This dish can be spicy, depending on which curry paste you use. It makes a lot of sauce, so make lots of rice to go with it. Jasmine rice is best for this curry. With fresh basil it makes a nice colourful meal.
- 1 packet, or 2 tbsp red curry paste
- 1 can coconut milk
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, pressed
- 1 pkg tofu, marinated, cubed and fried (or 3-4 chicken breasts)
- 1 red pepper
- ¼ of a pineapple, chopped
- other suggested additions: 1 can baby corn, chopped; 6-8 mushrooms, sliced; 8-10 cherry tomatoes, halved
- fish sauce or tamari, to taste
- fresh basil leaves
Put on the rice to cook.
Heat the curry paste in about a ¼ can of the coconut milk. Fry onion and garlic in this mix. If the tofu/chicken is not yet cooked, fry with this stuff. Add rest of coconut milk, veggies, and basil. Cook for about ten minutes more, and serve on rice.
