This is one of my favourite dishes in Thai food. It is a combination of pineapple and mixed veggies simmered in rich coconut milk and spices usually served with brown rice or jasmine rice. If you have been to Thai restaurants, you know what I am talking about. I happened to come across "thai spice blend" powder in one the ailes of the grocery store and thought of trying it out.
Ingredients:
Onions thinly sliced-1/4 cup
Carrot sliced-1/4 cup
Capsicum chopped big-1/4 cup
Pineapple chunks-1 cup
Lite Coconut milk(Canned)-3/4th of a can
Salt
Thai spice blend powder-1 tbsp(depending on the spice level)
Coriander leaves- to garnish
Oil-2 tsp
Method:
Heat oil in a pan, add onions and carrot. Fry for 2-3 minutes. Add capsicum and pineapple pieces. Fry for another minute. Add salt, coconut milk and spice powder. Bring it to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Garnish with coriander leaves and serve with jasmine rice or brown rice.
Note: The veges should not be fully cooked. They should be crunchy.
Veggies like baby corn, broccoli, tofu can also be added.
that is indeed simple, and looks pretty good!:)
