Viewed: 2 - Published at: 4 years agoIngredients
- Chicken velveting
- 1 tablespoon rice wine or gin
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 2 egg whites
- 1 pound chicken breast
- Green curry
- sesame oil
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced
- 2 tablespoons green curry (home made or from store)
- 500 milliliters coconut milk
- 2-4 tablespoons palm sugar (or brown sugar)
- 1-2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1.5 pounds vegetables (e.g. red onions, peppers, chili, sugar snaps, broccoli, etc. - whatever you like)
- Handful basil leaves
- Handful cilantro
- 4 lime wedges
Method
- Whip all ingredients but the chicken in a bowl.
- Cut the chicken in large pieces or strips and put it in a bowl. Cover it in the mix and leave for 20-30 minutes.
- TIP: The velveting method is great for tenderizing chicken pieces in other dishes as well - try adding some spices to suit your needs. It also works with other types of meat, such as pork or beef, they just need to be left en the mix a little longer.
- Heat the sesame oil in a wok or deep pan, and add the sliced garlic.
- When the curry starts to lose color, add the coconut milk one tablespoon at a time, and stir it in. When you've added about 5 tablespoons, pour in the rest, and give it a good stir and bring it to a boil.
- Serve over rice or noodles, lime wedges, and top with chopped cilantro.
- TIP: This dish works just as well with pork or beef.
