If I can capture a moment like this, just once in my life, I’ll rethink putting “I should have been more successful” on my motherfucking tombstone.

This is fucking dope.

curry

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 00:43:00 -0800

Hi! Sorry about the bad photo :( I was hungry and didn’t bother with presentation or photo quality :) Tonight I made curry! You can change this to how you like, like add potatoes, tofu, serve over spaghetti noodles, more salt, pepper, etc to suit what you have at home/what you like to eat. This is a more watery kind of curry.. cause thats how I like it :)

approx 2 servings

Chicken, defrosted, roughly diced. I used about 4 oz.
1/2 broccoli
2 carrots
1/2 onion
1 stalk green onions or scallions
2 cloves of garlic
1 tbsp Curry Powder (I use Hot but you can use mild..)
1 C coconut milk (or whole milk + pinch of sugar to substitute)
1 tsp starch [if using whole milk]
1 tsp soysauce
chicken broth powder to taste
salt and pepper to taste
2 pinches of dried basil
several mint leaves

Veggie Tips [real repetitive.. skip if you know how to cut veggies hahaha]

Chop up onions maybe… 1/2 inch size. Chop the green onions real small. What I usually do is cut it in half and stack them together, cut in half again, so you’ll have one big stack, align, then chop into tiny circles. Faster, and you’ll be able to hold everything more stiffly.
Mince garlic by cutting off the ends, peeling, then use the surface of the knife to crush the garlic.. pretty sure you know what I mean. haha. Cut really really small!
Chop carrots pretty small because they take longer to cook if it’s too big, unless you like it real crunchy. Do the same with the broccoli.

Cooking

Heat saucepan high, when hot enough, add just enough oil to coat. When the oil heats up, add the garlic, onions, and green onions. Lower heat if needed, don’t let the garlic burn! Unless you like that.. Mix for about 3 minutes or less, then take everything out and put aside. This is so that the oil/pan gets that garlic/onion …essence? without burning it.
Raise the heat to medium-high and add a little more oil. Add chicken but don’t mix it around, just let it sit there for a while… After it starts to brown 1/3 of the way, turn chicken and let sit again. (It’ll hold the chicken-y taste more, I hear!) When brown and little bit crispy, add the onion mix from before back in.
I like to turn the heat high when adding the curry powder.. I don’t know why. Mix!
Add carrots and broccoli, toss for a few minutes, then lower heat.
Pour in the milk.
Mix the starch separately with a bit of cold water to dissolve before adding to the saucepan of curry. If you like it thicker, mix with more starch and water.
Stir, and add salt, pepper, chicken broth powder, soy sauce, and basil. Adjust accordingly to how salty and spicy you like it. [I used half a teaspoon of salt, a tad of pepper, extra basil, and two pinches of the chicken powder] Add a bit of sugar now too if you used whole milk.
Mix in 3/4 C water. Use more/less if like it more watery, but add more/less seasonings if you do to balance it out!
Throw in the mint leaves and cover over low heat for 10-15 minutes, more if you like the veggies more tender.
Serve with rice or whatever you want, or as a soup base for plain noodles or spaghetti. or dip french bread in it!

YAY.

my dad called me to tell me that he was eating a ginormous alaskan crab and a million other things at a restaurant with all his peeps to rub it in my face for not going home this weekend. and then i said “are you calling just to make me jealous?” and he said “yes, i am, and you’re using the wrong term for jealous [in chinese]” ……. two hours later he calls me to ask if i ate yet (again) and i said, nope, and he said that they’re all so stuffed from eating every last bit of that crab.

he would.
