It is time for another online cooking workshop as part of our #GopherCooks series! This time, we will prepare Panaeng Curry, according to an original and popular Thai recipe. This dish can be prepared with meat, vegetarian, or vegan style, and we will make the curry from scratch. Yanine de Jonge, who used to run her own food blog, has picked out a recipe on which she will instruct us. We will be cooking the dish together, such that if you have any questions, you can ask them directly to Yanine. After having prepared the food, we will have dinner together as well.

List of ingredients:

For the curry paste

• 1 large fresh red chili

• A few dried red chilies or a teaspoon of chili flakes

• 2 tablespoons of chopped garlic

• 2 tablespoons of chopped shallots

• 1 teaspoon of grated galangal or Thai ginger

• 1 teaspoon of chopped coriander root (or use more roasted coriander seeds)

• 1 teaspoon of kaffir lime peel or grated peel of a regular lime

• 1 teaspoon of chopped turmeric root or dried turmeric

• 1/2 teaspoon of white pepper

• 1/2 teaspoon of roasted coriander seeds

• 1/2 teaspoon of roasted cumin seeds

• 1/2 teaspoon of salt

• 1/2 teaspoon of shrimp paste (leave this out if the paste is made vegan or vegetarian)

• A mortar or blender

Please be aware that you will make enough curry paste to cook more dishes in the future. The paste can be stored in the fridge for months.

Ingredients for the curry for 2 people

• Rice for two people

• 150 grams of meat, tofu, or another source of protein, such as a meat-replacing product

• 240 ml of coconut milk

• 240 ml of thick coconut cream

• 3 kaffir lime leaves

• 250 grams of pea eggplant, if the aim is a traditional dish (but this can easily be substituted by any vegetable, such as paprika, mushrooms, zucchini, carrots, etc.)

• 2 tablespoons of palm sugar or any white/brown sugar

• 2 tablespoons of fish sauce, or light soy sauce if made vegan or vegetarian

Yanine notes: the curry can be served with rice or noodles of any kind. In Thailand, Jasmine rice is used a lot. It is also possible to add more chilies if you like an even spicier dish!
