Thai Red Curry

1. Contributor: COOOOOOOOOOL....
didnt try but saw dis few days back,,,


2. Contributor: $u(h!tRa
Thai red curry ki main paste ee kada anni ready unte simple.
-Take a pan add oil,then add in the paste fry for a while until it releases nice aroma
-then add coconut cream[top layer of coconut milk u will c if u carefully open the tin ] this method adds little more flavour to the curry.
-let it fry for few more mins when u c the cream splits nd combines withthe paste now itz time to add ur vegetables.
Note:
[ I like my veggies to be cooked in the same pan so that it enhances the taste kani heavy anipisthadi thineppudu or for time saving u may preboil ur veggies nd can be added in tihs with the stock]

-if itz raw veggies u may need to fry a little while for2-3 mins if boiled veggie r added couple of mins is fine then stir in rest of coconut milk would love to add tiny bit of sugar in this stage,. let it boil nd simmer for the consistency u need.thats it heavenly thai curry is ready.garnish with coriander
note:for adjusting spice u may add chilles when the curry is boiling or if u think the paste is mild add to the oil in the first stage.

I tried showmethecurry.com red curry. Manam restaurant lo aithe veggies crunchy ga vuntayi kadha mana chethitho cook cheseppudu ala crunchy ga aapeyyalememo 2 times gravy taste yummy but veggies matram crunchy ga raledhu. Just yesterday edho green curry paste vunte try chesa. Innovative thoughts ekkuva ayyi daani medha instructions tho curry cook chesi rice noodles tho mix up chesanu. So yummy and motham no complaints tho ginne kaali. store bought lo spicy konchem takkuva vuntundhi kadha i ended adding up green chillies in the last minute. May be red curry ki red chilli paste would do good.

Freezing Vegetables

Contributor: Usha
When ever you freeze any raw vegetable, vaatini oka 2 minutes boiling water loo vunchali... then immediately drain the water and run it in cold water. Or ok abowl ice cubes and cold water teesukoni, aa bowl hee par boiled vegetables veyyali.

Two minutes boiling water loo enduku veyadam anti, it will kill teh ripening agents from teh vegetable. Immediately putting it cold water is to stop the cooking of the vegetable.

Raw vegetables as it is freeze chestee, they don't last long.. freezer loo vunna, slow go ripe avutu rot avutai. I saw this tip on a cooking show long time ago. India loo fresh green peas, green chana, anupakaya my mom elaga freeze chstundh.. nene chepa elacheyamni and baagane vuntai...
