Thai style- Panang Curry!

[Guitarman-S.T-]

Not a problem man, I love doing this, i just always forget to take pictures lol

Let me know if there is another thai dish you are interested in, I would enjoy 100% doing this again for another tasty creation !

I also wanted to thank you for posting this. I love Thai food, but never thought I could make it myself. I am going to start hunting down the ingredients to make this dish. May take some time to get those Kaffir Lime Leaves and red curry paste, but maybe I can pick that stuff up when I take a trip to Portland, Oregon next (hard part of living out in the sticks of Eastern Oregon).

Dang, now you just made me spend money- www.importfood.com, dropped over $50. Picked-up a Sticky rice starter kit (steaming pot, steaming basket, cheesecloth and 5 lbs sticky rice), red curry paste, 6 cans of the Aroy-D Coconut milk, fish sauce, etc. Just need to track down some of the Kaffir leaves now (did not think I needed to spend $15 at the site for over 80 leaves, see if I can find them someplace else).

WOW!! Nice going, looks very good. I'm married to a Thai and some of the best Thai cooking I have had is from here friends here on Maui. Of course it does not compare to my mother in-law in Thailand when I gome home to visist. Eat like a king.

Glad to see you like the Thai ways of cooking. emlao

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

Quick Question- Do you cook the beef or chicken at all before putting it in the curry/Coconut milk mixture? Or do you just put it in raw and let it cook through with the sauce?

Do you have any other recommendations for veggie choices for the curry? I am not a huge fan of Green Peppers, and don't have any asian long beans.

raw meat directly in the low simmering curry sauce

Veg... mmMMmmm Normally its the Beans... I prefer bell peppers, if you don't enjoy green get some Yellow, they are the sweetest tastiest thing you can imagine coming from a Vegetable, But also I have read a lot of books and recipe's where NO veg, is added.

So your call 100%


Yellow bell peppers... fresh ( blanched) Green beans... Sugar snap PEAS would be a great addition, or hell even Broccoli wouldn't be a bad choice. If its a hearty Veg just do a blanch before hand and it will heat up quicker in the mixture.

Kaffir's will be on there way shortly

Finally going to try this recipe out tonight. Can't wait.

mmmmm..... very tasty. My wife and sister in-law enjoyed as well.

I need to get some different red curry paste though. This stuff I have doesn't have any heat to it at all. Tasty, but no bite.

BTW, the only extra I added was a pile of fresh mushrooms. May try something else the next time.

some fresh thai chili's

Glad you enjoyed it!

Just a update and a bump: My wife loved the recipe, and she has been telling me she cannot wait for this weekend so I can make it again. She really enjoyed the curry, and loves the fact that she can now have sticky rice. I never knew sticky rice was made that way, but now that I have the rice cooker/basket, it is easy. It is also nice since the meal and rice take around 45 minutes to make each, so they all finish the same time.

[Guitarman-S.T-]

Indeed!
Let me know when the "stuff" arrives

[Guitarman-S.T-]

now you better make it with the leaves!
..Hmm... I think i may as well =]
"Thai Throw Down"
-will try and take more detailed pictures

[Guitarman-S.T-]

Attention!

Left over beef Panang is... well... Amazing on toast!

For a little left over action, if you dont want to make another batch of fresh sticky rice ( after you make it, and store it, the next day its pretty much regular granular rice.. no more sticky) Grab some whole wheat bread, Toast it up, make a little Sandwich.. and Pow! Friggin Amazing!
