Pink coconut curry with rice =p

Hihi i love when my food is colored, i should do it more often =D
I made pink coconut curry with rice for breakfast (i sometimes make dinner for breakfast), and i thought it was cute that it was pink, so i decided to post it =p The pinkness comes from the red beet that i added =D

I'm not gonna specify how much of each ingredient i used, and also if anyone wants to make this you can use other ingredients of course =p

Ingredients:
Onion
Garlic
Chili
Red bell pepper
Carrot
Zucchini
Red beet
Cabbage
Celeriac
Coconut milk
Water (i wanted it more liquidish)
Green curry paste (other colors are nice too =p)
Lime juice (i had a little remaining that i wanted to use xD)

Directions:
Chop veggies, stir fry them a bit, add coconut milk, water, curry paste and optionally lime juice and let it simmer for a while. Served with rice or anything else that sounds yummy =p

Tomato coconut curry leftover dinner

First i just wanna mention my legs still dont wanna run, but they dont mind walking for some reason >.> I wonder why xD

So over to todays dinner =p I had like half a can of tomatoes, 1/4 green chili, 3/4 can of coconut milk and half a broccoli i didnt know how to get rid of, so i figured to just mix it all together and see what happened xD And it actually turned out very well! So if i ever end up with lots of leftover stuff again i will maybe make something like this again =p

I guess the basis of this dinner would be the canned tomatoes, coconut milk, random vegetables and spices where the spices and vegetables can be changed to whatever you feel like or have xD I wanted mine kinda curryish =p

Here is what i used but ye, use what you have or want =p
Margarine/oil
2 mushrooms
1/4 onion
0.5 - 1 cm ginger (i guess its about 1-2 teaspoons xD)
1/4 green chili
1 carrot
1/4 red bell pepper
5 cm zucchini
1/4 broccoli
1 tomato
1/2 can of tomato
1/4 can coconut milk
Spices (no spesific order xd): curry, coriander, mustard, turmeric, cumin, chili, paprika, salt, pepper

I sliced mushrooms in 0.5 cm thick slices then divided them in two on the middle. The mushrooms i had on medium heat with the margarine/oil until they were "ready". Meanwhile i finely chopped the onion, ginger and chili. When the mushrooms were "ready" i added this. It's smart to stir every now and then btw =p The carrots i chopped in 0.5 cm thick circles that i divided on the middle so they became half-moons (i was artistic today xd) then added them, then cut the bell pepper in pieces and added them, then i cutted the zucchini in 0.6 cm thick circles that i divided in 8 pieces and added (artistic ftw xD) then i chopped broccoli and added that and i assume i let it stir for a bit until i felt the vegetables was ready for tomato (some minutes or immediately, i dont remember xD) So then i added can of tomato and chopped the other tomato and added that one too. Then i added coconut milk and let it all simmer for a while. Then i added the spices after taste, and let it simmer until all vegetables were tender =p

I could probably shorten the wall of text above to: "chop and add vegetables!" but that would be boring since im in wall of text writing mood atm =p

Ah now i remember, after spicing it nicely up i figured i would serve it with quinoa, so let it simmer while i made quinoa =p Rice or other stuff would probably work just as fine, but today i felt like using quinoa =p

Here is a picture of the deliciousness =p


Now i still need to use the rest of the broccoli, onion, ginger, mushrooms, red bell pepper, 2 kg carrots, 1/2 can coconut milk and the rest of the zucchini xD but i already got plans for some of them (cuz of the cook book project) xD But maybe i make this again to get rid of the rest of the broccoli, cuz that broccoli is "hard" to get rid of and i always wanna get rid of it xD and i always wanna have a broccoli in the house aswell xD im weird xD

Thai tomatosoup

Recently i found a recipe on a blog that i wanted to try: Thai tomatosoup

This soup was very yummy, so i will make it again later ^.^

So ye, heres the recipe, translated by me, but not written by me =p Credit goes to the author of the recipe ^.^

 

Thailandsk tomatsuppe

1 onion
2 cloves garlic
some fresh ginger
1 box chopped tomatoes
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 box coconut milk
1 tablespoon sugar
salt
some oil

* Chop onion, garlic and ginger and fry it for 5 minutes.
* Mix it with the rest of the ingredients, stir well, then let it boil (at this point the coconut milk gave me a huge urge to put curry in it as well, so i did that xD).
* When it just started boiling, pour the soup in a food processor until its smooth.
* Put the soup back in the pan and let it boil for 5 minutes. If the soup is too thick you can add some water.


Yammie! =D
