Today’s Adventurous Eats: Spicy Mango Coconut Curry

I’m excited to share with you my latest creation that combines sweet, spicy, and creamy flavors in one satisfying dish. This Spicy Mango Coconut Curry is perfect for adding a tropical twist to your dinner rotation.

Ingredients:

• 1 ripe mango, diced (200g)
• 1 can of coconut milk (400ml)
• 2 chicken breasts, sliced (300g)
• 3 tablespoons of red curry paste
• 1 bell pepper, sliced (150g)
• 2 stalks of lemongrass, bruised
• 1 tablespoon of fish sauce
• Juice of 1 lime
• Fresh cilantro for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• large skillet
• wooden spoon
• measuring spoons

To start, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the red curry paste. Stir fry for a minute until fragrant, then add the sliced chicken breasts and cook until they are no longer pink. Next, pour in the coconut milk and add the lemongrass stalks. Let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Once the curry base has thickened slightly, stir in the diced mango and sliced bell pepper. Let the curry simmer for another 5 minutes until the mango is heated through and the bell peppers are tender-crisp. Finally, season the curry with fish sauce and lime juice to taste.

Serve the Spicy Mango Coconut Curry over steamed rice and garnish with fresh cilantro for a burst of freshness. The combination of sweet mango, creamy coconut milk, and spicy curry paste creates a symphony of flavors that will transport your taste buds to a tropical paradise.

This dish weighs approximately 1050g once cooked, making around 4 servings. Each serving has about 350 calories, making it a satisfying and flavorful meal option.

Tip: For an extra kick of heat, add a thinly sliced red chili pepper to the curry while it simmers. This will elevate the spiciness of the dish and add a pop of color to the presentation.

I hope you give this Spicy Mango Coconut Curry a try and enjoy the unique blend of flavors it offers. Feel free to customize it with your favorite proteins or vegetables to make it your own!
