Curry is a dish found in many Asian countries. It’s always spicy, but not necessarily in the hot-spicy sense. There are just a lot of spices in Curry 🙂

I like to make a lot of curry at once, as it’s not that much more work to just make double the amount. It stays good in the fridge for more than a week.

Ingredients

For 3 people, you need:

• 500 grams Broccoli
• 1 Zucchini
• 1 big onion
• 1 pepper
• 2 carrots
• 3 spring onions
• 0.5 tea spoons salt
• 0.5 tea spoons pepper
• 0.5 tea spoon of powder for vegetable broth
• 2 tea spoons sugar
• 2 table spoons Curry
• 1 tea spoon Fish sauce
• 1 small tin can of Corn
• 3 red hot Chili peppers
• 1 can of coconut milk
• French fried onions
• Sunflower oil
• Side dish: Rice; roughly 100ml per person. I like Jasmine rice most.

Tools

• A big Wok in which all of the above fit
• A sharp knife and a cutting board for cutting the vegetables
• A rice cooker — if you don’t have that, a pot is also fine
• A Ladle to get the Curry out of the wok
• One spoon and a soup plate per person

Preparation

For all of the following, you will need roughly 1 hour.

Rice: Put it in a rice cooker with double the amount of water.

Preparation:

1. Peel the carrots and cut them into sticks.
2. Wash the Broccoli and cut it into pieces that you can eat comfortably,
3. Cut the onion.
4. Wash the spring oninons and cut them into pieces
5. Was the Zucchini. Cut the Zucchini in roughly 1cm thick slickes. Make roughly 4–9 pieces out of the Zucchini, so that you can eat it comfortably.

Curry:

2. Once the oil is hot, add the onions.

4. Add the coconut milk.
5. Add the Broccoli and carrots.

Serve (for each person):

1. Put the rice in a small cup to form it. Put it on the table.
2. Put the Curry on the plate
3. Put some french fried onions over the rice
