Thai style- Panang Curry!

Guitarman-S.T- · 09-28-2009, 03:44 PM

This is my Holy grail for Thai food, Actually have a friend driving over an hour at the moment just for me to cook it tonight hahaha

Such an easy recipe i had to pass it along-

2 tablespoons sugar
4 kaffir lime leaves, thinly sliced ( if you cannot find them, Lime Zest)
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 1/2 tablespoon red curry paste ( Or Panang Curry Paste)
1 cup coconut milk
1 lb beef, sliced ( I prefer skirt, If cut thin, and against the grain it will be quite tender)

And TEAR IT UP!

Pour 1/2 of the coconut milk in a pan over medium heat. I seem to use my wok for this, Simple as that. Add curry paste and break it up to mix it with coconut milk. Keep stirring to prevent bottom from sticking. Lower the heat to simmer if necessary. Simmer until red oil appears. Add the beef and stir to coat the beef with the curry paste. Add sugar, fish sauce and the rest of coconut milk. Let it simmer until the beef is tender and the liquid is reduced to a thick sauce. It should take about half an hour to an hour depending on your heat. Add water if your beef is still tough and let the liquid reduce.

Sprinkle the sliced kaffir lime leaves on top. Serve hot.

( if you used Lime zest, actually put a small amount into the curry while cooking)

For veggies the traditional way is Asian Long beans, Kind of rare and $$$ in this area so i enjoy Bell peppers. and some Sugar snap peas for a change of direction, and texture.

for you XxXHOT HOTXxX Fans, that curry paste alone should give it a kick, but for me....

I throw in about a half a dozen fresh Thai peppers ( Birds eye) Just crush them, toss them in the curry for people to pick them out, or thinly slice them.

And thats that... Happy Eatings!

( ill take pics tonight )

Ah hell lol, sorry bud ( let me know if you cant get any kaffir lime leaves, i bought a small bag awhile back/ they freeze great. I can easily send some your waY)

Had Paneng Nua at a Thai place last night. Very tasty. Again, can't wait to try this at home.

I have dried kaffir leaves, but I think if I soak them for a bit I could cut them up fine for this recipe.

let me know how that works, you may be able to slice them as is ( there pretty dry and firm to begin with)
Ahh! Panang Nua, Get some Yum Nua if you want a tasty refreshing beef salad next time

I'm still waiting to try out a Papaya Salad at home

Buy it.

tuxpuff · 10-09-2009, 03:23 PM

I agree with Adam...plus it's waaaaaaaay cheap.

Guitarman-S.T- · 10-09-2009, 04:26 PM

No problem with buying it what so ever

If you choose to make it how i describe go with the Red curry paste, and add your own kaffir lime leaves, to pretty well make it... Panang curry. So then you are also able to make other curries and not stick with the same Panang flavor background..

If your interested on making your own curry let me know, i can write up my recipe

Enjoy!!!

mosesbotbol · 10-10-2009, 03:13 PM

I make Indian curry pastes all the time, this one should not be any different. Nothing fresh roasted and ground spices each time.

Guitarman-S.T- · 10-15-2009, 05:27 PM

Well tonight's the night.. PICTURE TIME! As i prepare to dish up.. Chicken Panang?.... lol Sounds odd, but i had some so i thought id use it up and see what happens Enjoy
