Red Curry Zucchini And Peppers
- 1 (14 ounce) can unsweetened coconut milk
- 1/4 cup thai-style red curry paste
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons neutral vegetable oil
- 1 large sweet onion, quartered and thinly sliced
- 4 medium zucchini (1 1/2 lbs) or 4 medium yellow squash, trimmed, halved lengthwise and sliced 1/4 in thick (1 1/2 lbs)
- 1/2 yellow bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 1/2 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- crushed red pepper flakes, to taste (optional)
- 1 1 cup edamame (optional) or 1 cup lima beans (optional)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- cooked rice
- Mix coconut milk, curry paste and salt in a blender; process until smooth. (You use only part of this, so the nutritional information is way off. The remainder can be refrigerated for a week. Use at room temperature).
- Heat a 12 in nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil and heat. Add onion; cook until golden, about 3 minutes.
- Add xucchini and bell peppers (I used one whole purple pepper, whatever sweet pepper you can get will be just fine). Cook, stirring, until golden and tender, about 6 minutes.
- Stir in garlic and pepper flakes; cook 1 minute.
- Stir in 1/2 cup to 2/3 cup of the coconut mixture. Add peas, if using. Simmer gently to reduce the sauce somewhat and blend the flavors, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste for salt. Remove from heat and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve over rice.
