  • Panang curry is one of my favourite dishes to make. It's one of the most popular curry dishes in Thailand and it's a real flavour bomb. It's also a great dish for learning how to season and flavour your dish, especially when you're cooking with a bunch of intense ingredients.
    Panang Curry Recipe:
    - Coconut milk: 500 ml / 17 oz
    - Panang curry paste: 2 Tbsp. (adjust to your liking)
    - Your meat of choice (Chicken thighs, breasts or pork): 500g / 0.9 lb cut up into bite sized pieces. You can also cook this dish without meat and just use more vegetables instead. Eggplant/Aubergine works great for this.
    - Vegetables: I'm using one red bell pepper cut up into thin strips.
    - Kefir lime leaves: about 6, halved without the stems
    - Thai basil: about 15 leaves, cut up
    - Fish sauce: 2 tsp. (adjust to your liking)
    - Sugar: 2 tsp.
    - Salt to taste
    - Lemon juice. Just a squeeze. (optional)
    Steps:
    1. Heat up 4 Tbsp. of coconut milk in the bottom of a wok or pan.
    2. Add your curry paste and sauté in the coconut milk like you would in oil. Beware not to burn the paste.
    3. When the curry paste has combined with the coconut milk, add your kefir lime leaves and sauté for a bit longer.
    4. Add 2 tsp. of sugar and around 2 tsp. of fish sauce. Taste the curry and adjust to your liking.
    5. Add your meat to the curry. For chicken you should let it cook for around 15 minutes, for pork around 30 until tender.
    6. Give the curry another taste and add your vegetables, which is in my case the bell pepper, together with the Thai basil leaves.
    7. Let it cook until the vegetables soften up.
    8. Give your curry another taste and season with salt. Add more curry paste, fish sauce, sugar and lemon juice as needed.
    9. Serve with rice and enjoy!

    I'm Thai, real Thai Panang in my house is only salty and a little sweet... but if you add lemon and it tastes ok... there's no wrong or right in cooking 😊😊

      Yeah, I like the extra sourness, but there is no right or wrong way 😋

    now that you've documented some asian foods in your travel, will you try this format again? making food you've tried on your journey to see if it's close to how you ate them :)

    • @ZoeandSimon
      @ZoeandSimon  Před rokem

      Yeah it's a good idea, we've been thinking about trying a format like that, but we'll have to see if we can make it work 😁

    Ohhhh No !! do not put lime juice on it !!!! just only sugar fish sauce and little salt at the beginning and also the sugar we normal use palm sugar that's make more diffrent test of white sugar it's more soft of sweet and smell nice, white sugar it quite strong sweet.
    And for me i did not taste too much when i cook my foods just can imagine by experience and will know how to make the right taste that i need on it.
    I saw all your clip on your chanel just saw this one show how to cook and all are travelong clip so maybe you may do some cook clip with the country foods that you in there travel time it will be more different all traveling vlog and more interesting maybe.

      Agreed, no lime or any citrus. The aroma from kaffir lime leaves is all you need. Add the sugar and nam pla before you start simmering, then taste. If done properly, you only need to taste 3-4 times. 10 is excessive.
