Quick and easy for you and the family
Using a Thai green
curry paste makes
this a quick dish to
cook – curry pastes are
available in sachets
or bottles from
supermarkets and
Asian grocery stores
Quick Thai chicken
curry for one
Ingredients
2 tsp rice bran oil
1 chicken breast, skinless,
trimmed and sliced
1 small onion, sliced
1 small red capsicum, sliced
2 tsp Thai green curry paste
2 Tbsp water
165g coconut milk, or coconut
cream
1 to serve lime, halved
Directions
Mixed vege, ham and
sour cream fettuccine
Serves 4
Ingredients
460g fettuccine, or spaghetti
360g champagne ham, diced
1½ cups frozen vegetables,
defrosted
250g sour cream, or creme
fraiche
½ lemon, juiced
Directions
Bring a large pot of salted water to
the boil. Add pasta, stir and cook
for 8-10mins or until al dente.
Stir pasta a few times while
cooking to prevent it sticking
together.
Drain pasta, then add back to
the pot along with the ham, frozen
veges, sour cream and lemon
juice.
Toss everything together and
warm through on low heat.
Season to taste with a little salt (if
needed) and freshly ground black
pepper.
If splurging on the flat shopping
budget, a few torn basil leaves on
top is nice.
Divide between serving bowls
and eat while hot.
Heat a frying pan, add oil and
pan-fry skinless chicken breast,
trimmed and sliced for 5min to
brown on both sides. Remove to
one side.
Add sliced onion and capsicum
to the pan and stir-fry to lightly
brown.
Add curry paste and gently fry
for 1min to release flavours.
Add water and mix until
smooth, then stir in the coconut
milk or cream.
Return chicken to the pan
and simmer very gently (do not
allow to boil) for 5min, stirring
often.
Stir in fresh coriander and serve
with lime wedges on the side to
squeeze over.
Tips
The curry should not need any
salt and pepper, or spices as
the curry paste is full of strong
flavours.
Don’t allow the mixture to
boil once the coconut milk has
been added or the sauce may
separate.
