Steps to make Monkey Curry:
- Prepare Proteins - - Chicken Breasts: - Cut raw breasts into small chunks about half-thumb size - - Shrimp: - Remove shells - - Season either protein being used with salt & pepper
- Prepare Tomatoes - - The tomatoes can be left chunky, or blended for a smoother final texture - - Fresh: - Dice tomatoes into small pieces (For added smoothness, try scoring, blanching and peeling the tomato skins) - - Canned: - No further prep. - - Blend if you intend to now.
- Prepare Potatoes - - - Peel and cut potatoes about half-thumb size
- Prepare Onions - - Dice onions into small pieces
- Prepare Garlic - - Peel and mince garlic
- Prepare ginger - - Peel and finely mince ginger
- Begin Cooking rice - - Rinse and begin cooking rice in your rice maker
- Cook potatoes - - (This step can be done along side the next one if you're comfortable with cooking two separate ingredients) - - Add 1-2 Tbsp of cooking oil to the frying pan and add potatoes. - - Add pepper and LIBERAL amounts of salt. - - Continue to toss and fry potatoes on high heat until a brown crust has formed. The interior of these potato peices do NOT need to be 100% cooked - - Remove the potatoes from the pan and place into a separate bowl
- Cooking Onions - - (The whole cooking process in the pot will be done on medium heat) - - In your pot add 1 Tbsp of cooking oil and sweat onions (lid covered) stirring occasionally until they start to turn yellow
- Cooking Garlic and Ginger - - Add the garlic and ginger to the tomatoes and cook until the onions start to brown. - - Be careful not to overcook the garlic here. If the garlic is going deep brown, just continue to the next step. Better to have slightly undercooked onions than overcooked garlic.
- Cooking Tomatoes - - Add your tomatoes to the pot. If you did not blend the tomatoes, also add around ½ cup of water. - - We'll be cooking the tomatoes down into a smooth texture so additonal water may be needed throughout the cooking process if the mixture gets too dry
- Adding Spices - - Add chili paste, curry powder, chili flakes, basil, salt, and pepper. - - The exact measurements will depend on your taste, but more can be added later. - - I try to aim for a red-orange color here
- Continuing cooking - - Continue to cook the mixture in the pot until you're happy with the texture, then add your dairy products. - - I aim for an orange-yellow color now - - Now is when you can start to refine the taste as the dish is nearing completion. - - This step can be extended by just adding small amounts of water to the pot.
- Cooking Proteins - - Add 2 tsp cooking oil to the frying pan and get cook protein on high heat until slightly browned and cooked through
- Final Steps - - Ensure the flavour of your curry is what you'd like, and then add the cooked potatoes and chicken to the pot. - - Add additional milk / cream / water if needed. - - The final product should be a thick and creamy curry - - Plate with rice and you're done!
