Simple Thai Stew [Stew inspired by Thai]

Ingrediens

• Oil (Olive oil or rapeseed oil)
• 4 tsp of Red curry paste
• 800-1200 ml coconut milk (12-14% fat ideal)
• 5-10 lime leaves
• 0.5 dl sugar
• 0.5 dl Chinese soysauce
• 4 dl rice (Jasmin rice ideal)
• 2-3 Chicken breast

Directions

• Put the oil into a frying pan, just enough for it to cover the frying pan with a good layer.
• Pour the red curry paste in and start mix it
• Pour the coconut milk into the frying pan when the red curry has diluted itself with the oil as much as possible
• Put the sugar and soysauce into the stew
• Make sure to mix properly and frequently to prevent it from burning
• Throw the lime leaves into the frying pan
• Let the stew brew on low heat while you prepare chicken and rice
• Cut the chicken breast into either cubes or tiny slices (Personal preference)
• Fry the chicken in another frying pan
• Pour the chicken into the stew and mix around, keep it at lower temperatures
• Now make the rice
• Try to find all the lime leaves and take them out of the stew
• Pour rice into the stew and mix carefully, you do not want to make a porridge!
• Take the stew of the heat and serve it hot and perhaps with a piece of bread.

Note: The stew is not very good to make in small portions. This recipe is for at least 3-4 people. But it can be frozen or even used the day after for lunch at work!
