Peanut and Pineapple Curry

I saw Jamie Oliver make a version of this curry and knew I had to try it. I found this recipe on the net and adapted it to suit our taste. Check out Recipe #190959 to make your own, fresh coconut milk. This is great served alongside a simple chicken or fish dish, or just served on its own, over jasmine rice, for a vegetarian dish (if you want it to be completely vegetarian, omit the fish sauce, but be prepared for a loss of flavour).

Super easy! We found it to be a little bland so added lots more sambal oelek and served it with chili sauce on the side too. Over rice I thought it was quite filling and better as a main course than side dish. My husband said he wished it included pork or chicken. I explained that authentic African meals don't always incorporate meat, but he insisted that next time it needs some meat. Made for the Zaar World Tour.Reply

Delightful! This is easy and wonderful - just the right amount of heat and plenty of flavor. I used worcestershire sauce instead of fish sauce and I used a bit more curry powder. This went well with recipe #206167. Thanks for posting!Reply
