Elevate your Asian feast with this flavorful pork curry.
Ingredients:
  • 2 x 400ml cans coconut milk
  • 87.50 gm red curry paste
  • 100.65 gm fish sauce
  • 62.50 ml grated palm sugar or brown sugar
  • 2 lemongrass stalks, trimmed, cut into thirds, bruised
  • 1kg shoulder pork, trimmed, cut into thin strips
  • 2 small red chillies, deseeded, finely chopped
  • 5 makrut lime leaves, spine removed, shredded
  • 250.00 ml roasted salted peanuts, ground steamed jasmine rice, to serve
Instructions:
  • In a large saucepan, mix together coconut milk, curry paste, fish sauce, sugar, and lemongrass. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. Simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
  • Combine pork, chillies, lime leaves, and peanuts with the curry mixture. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the pork is tender.
  • Discard lemongrass. Serve curry alongside rice. For a delightful touch, pulverize roasted peanuts to a fine powder using a food processor.
