Method
- Cook the jasmine rice. Heat a little coconut milk until it bubbles, then fry the yellow curry paste until thick.
- Stir in the remaining coconut milk, fish sauce, brown sugar, tamarind puree and a splash of water.
- Add chicken thighs, potato and onion. Simmer gently 25 to 30 minutes until the chicken is tender and the potato is cooked.
- Taste for fish sauce and sugar.
- Serve with the rice.
Shopping tip
Look for karee or yellow curry paste, not yellow sour curry. Maesri and Mae Ploy show up in Asian shops; Blue Dragon is the supermarket fallback. Leite de coco, molho de peixe, pasta de tamarindo. Batata cerosa and cebola are easy.
