Description

I had my first massaman curry in my favourite Thai restaurant; it was the only bad dish I ever had there! They forgot the tofu (for the vegetarian version) and added it raw, the whole dish was bland and insipid. I gave it another go in a vegan restaurant (Saf, London) and it was delicious. This is my take on it, I used cashews for healthy protein. There are lots of ingredients, but apart from the rice it’s a one pot dish. My version is rich, creamy, spicy, aromatic and the most delicious!


Ingrediente

Scale

o ceapa, cuburi

a little vegetable oil

half a teaspoon of salt

4 catei de usturoi, tocat

o una and a half inch (3.8cm) bucată de ghimbir, tocat

half a teaspoon of dried cumin seed

half a teaspoon of dried coriander

a tablespoon of turmeric

o lingurita de fulgi de ardei iute uscat

2 teaspoons of tamarind paste, stirred into two tablespoons de apă

black pepper

4 medium potatoes, scrubbed and quartered (or cut into large chunks), I prefer to use a floury variety

2 large tomatoes, tocat

o 400ml (14 uncie) poate de lapte de cocos

200g (7 uncie) cashew nuts

2 tablespoons of peanut butter

o lingura de nectar de agave (or use brown sugar)

the juice of a lime

3 fire de ceapa verde (scallions), sliced diagonally, to garnish


Instructions

Put the cashew nuts in a cup and pour in boiling water to just cover them

Splash some vegetable oil in a large saucepan so it just covers the bottom, add the onion and salt, sitr and sweat on the lowest heat for about ten minutes until softened

Add the garlic, stir

Adăugați ghimbir, stir

Add the turmeric, coriandru, cumin, dried chilli flakes and give another good stir and grind in some black pepper

Add the tamarind and water

Add the potato pieces so they start to absorb the flavours, followed by the chopped tomatoes

Add a little more water to loosen if necessary

Add the coconut milk and stir

Allow to come slowly to the boil and simmer for about 30 minutes until the potatoes have softened

(Now is the time to put on some rice if required)

After 15 minutes stir in the soaked cashews along with the soaking water

Just before serving add the peanut butter, half of the lime juice and the agave nectar.

Serve garnished with the spring onions, with a squeeze of lime and a pinch of dried chilli flakes (opțional)
