I love to pull out the wok and go crazy. Tonight I pulled together a Thai inspired dish and a hoisin stir-fry.Chickpea Coconut Curry
INGREDIENTS
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1" piece of ginger, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 can of chickpeas, rinsed
- 1 cup corn
- 1 can coconut milk
- 1 tsp Thai Kitchen yellow or red curry paste
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp brown sugar
- juice of 1 lime
- 3 small bok choy
- chopped cilantro
METHOD
1. Heat oil in a wok on med-hi. Throw in ginger and garlic and stir fry for 1 min.
2. Add chickpeas and curry paste and stir fry for 3-4 mins.
3. Add coconut milk, corn, soy sauce, sugar, and lime juice. Bring to a boil.
4. About 5 mins before you want to serve the dish, and the bok choy. Cook until softened, but still crunchy.
5. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
TIP! The four flavours of Thai food are sweet, salty, hot, and sour. Adjust the seasonings to your own taste.
