I love Thai food. I have posted yellow, red, green curry in my blog. My son is also a big fan of Thai food. Recently we tried at one Thai place near our home. Everyone enjoyed the food there. I am a big fan of Thai curries. When I was looking for options, I saw this Panang curry so I decided to give it a try. Of course, I tried the vegetable version. Even though it is close to Red curry it tasted little different. I had it with steamed rice. But this can go well with Roti, Paratha too.
Ingredients:
For Panang paste:
Dried Chillies – 4 ( Chiles De Abrol)
Green chilies – 2
Cumin seeds – 1/2 teaspoon
Pepper corn – 1/2 teaspoon
Roasted peanut – 3 tablespoon
Lemon grass – 2 Fresh stalks (discard the outer layers)
Kaffir lime leaves – 5
Shallots / small onion- 3
Garlic – 5
Salt to taste
For Curry:
Pan-roasted Tofu – 1 cup
cooked channa / Chickpea- 1/2 cup
Mixed vegetable – 2 cups (Capsicum, Carrots, Broccoli)
Panang curry paste – 2 tablespoon
Onion – 1 (slice length)
Garlic – 2 cloves (chopped)
Coconut milk – 1 cup (thick)
Salt to taste
Coconut oil – 3 teaspoon
Peanut butter – 2 tablespoon
Soy sauce – 1 tablespoon
brown sugar – 1 tablespoon
Lime juice to taste
Basil leaves few
Method:
