I would like to introduce you to perhaps the most divine piece of India ever put in a bottle. . . . . . . Patak's Jalfrezi Curry Cooking Sauce! Patak's is a brand out of England, so I would question the authenticity, but who cares when it's this good? Imagine a Tikka Masala Sauce with a Tamarind and Coconut Flavor. Harris Teeter carries the brand, though I've seen it at Target also. A $4 jar will lasts you about 3 or 4 big dishes. I've included my super quick and super easy stir-fry that I made last night.
makes 2-3 servings
For rice:
Make rice so you end up with 6 cups. I use
2 cups of short-grain rice
2 cups of water
2 cups of light coconut milk
Boil 40-50 minutes until tender
For stir-fry:
Saute in a little oil
1/2 white onion
1 T of minced Ginger
Add
1 cup of frozen okra
1 cup of Dark Red Kidney Beans, drained (about 1/2 a can)*
1/2 cup of frozen corn
3/4 cup (more or less) of Patak's Jalfrezi Curry Cooking Sauce
Simmer for 5-10 minutes
Put rice in bowl, top with curry mixture, and then, for each dish, top with
1/4 cup of fresh, chopped cilantro
*I'm not a Whole Foods fan, however, I love their 365 brand of canned beans. These beans are the only canned beans I have ever found without tons of salt added during the canning process.
