Thai Pumpkin Curry

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Servings 4

Ingredients

  

• 1 Can Pumpkin Purée (NET WT 29 oz)
• 1 Can Coconut Milk (NET WT 13.5 Fl oz)
• 1 Cup Water
• 1 Cube Knorr Chicken Bouillon
• 1/2 Cup Thai Basil Leaves (Packed)
• 2 Tablespoons Yellow Curry Paste (I Use MayPloy Brand)
• 1/3 Cup Brown Sugar
• 1 Whole Scallion (Half Red Onion Can Be Used As Substitute)
• 1 Whole Chicken Thigh (Boneless and Thinly Sliced)
• 1 Teaspoon Fish Sauce

Instructions

 

• In a sauce pan, combine all the ingredients except the chicken thigh. Bring the pot to a slow boil.
• Cook Until the scallions begin to soften, then add the raw chicken. If thinly sliced, the chicken will cook quickly. Maintain the slow boil for 5 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked.

Notes

To make this dish Vegan, Omit adding chicken, and use vegetable broth instead of the bouillon cube and water. A vegan “fish sauce” can also be used, or it can omitted all together, but additional salt would be needed if omitted.
