Yellow Curry With Root Vegetables, Cashews & Basil
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- two 13.5-ounce cans coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons yellow curry paste or substitute 2 teaspoons ground turmeric and red curry paste
- 1 onion, cut in half from root to stem and sliced 1/4 inch thick
- 1 small butternut squash, peeled, seeded, cut into wedges and sliced 1/2-inch thick
- 2 medium parsnips or carrots, sliced on the bias into 1/2-inch ovals
- 1 small turnip or rutabaga, cut in into wedges and sliced into 1/2-inch thick pieces
- 2 cups vegetable stock or chicken stock
- 1 1/4 teaspoons fine sea salt
- 1 cup raw cashew pieces
- 1/4 cup chopped dried mango, optional
- 20 fresh basil leaves
- Heat the oil in a stockpot over medium heat. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Spoon the coconut cream from the top of the canned coconut milk into the pot. Add the curry paste, stir until smooth and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the onion, squash, parsnips and turnip, along with the remaining coconut milk, the stock and salt. Raise the heat, cover partially and simmer until the vegetables are crisp-tender, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toast the cashews in a dry skillet over medium-low heat, shaking the pan now and then, until the cashews turn golden, about 4 minutes.
- Check the vegetables for doneness. If you'd like them softer, simmer the stew for about 5 minutes more.
- Taste the broth for seasoning. Add the cashews, mango, if using, and the basil just before serving.
