Here is a curry that can be made at home without a special trip for hard-to-find ingredients. We tested it using both coconut milk and cream; the results were equally tasty.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp. Cooking oil
- 1 onion
- 2 clove garlic
- 1 tbsp. chopped fresh ginger
- 1 jalapeño pepper
- 1 tbsp. curry powder
- 3/4 c. canned low-sodium chicken broth or homemade stock
- 4 boneless and skinless chicken breasts
- 1 apple
- 2 plum tomatoes
- 1/4 c. canned unsweetened coconut milk or heavy cream
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 2 tbsp. Chopped cilantro (optional)
- 1/2 lb. Vermicelli
Instructions
- In a large nonstick frying pan, heat the oil over moderately low heat. Add the onion and saute, stirring occasionally, until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, and jalapeño and cook, stirring, for 1 minute longer. Stir in the curry powder and then the chicken broth. Bring the liquid to a simmer. Stir in the cubed chicken, cover the pan, and remove it from the heat. Let the chicken steam in the hot broth until almost done, about 5 minutes. Add the apple, tomatoes, coconut milk, salt, and the cilantro, if using. Simmer gently until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes.
- In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the vermicelli until just done, about 9 minutes. Drain the pasta and toss with the curry sauce.
- Wine Recommendation: This example of fusion cuisine (Indian-Thai-Italian) pairs well with a Kabinett Riesling from Germany's Mosel-Saar-Ruwer region. Don't be put off by the wine's slight residual sugar — it's a perfect foil for the flavors of the dish.
