Green mango curry is a favorite dish in Sri Lanka. Because it's not easy to find green mangoes here, I make green apple curry. 😊 Actually, I got the idea from a friend, and she uses coconut milk to make a gravy. I on the other hand, like to find shortcuts as long as it tastes good, so I do not use coconut milk.
Here's my version. Quantities are approximations as I rarely measure things.
Ingredients:
4 Granny Smith apples
1 TBS cumin powder (or curry powder)
1/8 tsp turmeric powder
1/2 medium onion chopped
3-4 cloves of garlic sliced
2 sprigs of curry leaves (optional)
1 1/2 inch piece of pandan leaf (optional)
2 1-inch pieces of cinnamon
1/8 tsp red chili flakes
salt
1 TBS olive oil
1 TBS water
Cut apples in quarters, core, and cut each quarter in half. Add all other ingredients, mix well, cover and cook in medium heat until apples softens.
That's it! 😊
Remove curry leaves, pandan and cinnamon pieces before serving.
Hi Nil, That recipe sounds so healthy! Your loaf of bread looks perfect. I'm sure your stocks will come back in time. I actually just bought some Coca Cola stock. I had been waiting for prices to go down...I am eating more, too. It's to be cooking and baking so much, though.
ReplyDeleteI think staying home makes us want to eat more, especially in this stressful time.
DeleteI'll check the prices of Coca Cola stock. Thanks Stephenie. :)
I will try this with green mango when the season comes around, this year I got 59kgs of green mangoes given to me. I have some frozen in the freezer so I'll try with them
ReplyDeleteI am going to try this apple curry! I have some Granny Smith apples in my fridge! I've had green mango curry, of course, but, not green apple curry!
ReplyDeleteI hope you will like it Bless. :)
DeleteNil this looks delicious and will be a very refreshing change from all of the other curries we enjoy. Green apples are always available in the supermarket so next time I go, I'll buy some. Looks like a fantastic and easy recipe.Interesting that it could be varied with coconut milk as well. Take care and thanks so much for sharing, Pauline
ReplyDeleteYes, Pauline it is a very easy recipe. I hope you will try it. :)
DeleteCurry flavors have been one of my adventures while locked down and eating only at home. This is very intriguing.
