Curried Coconut Sauce
Curried Coconut Sauce
Since I had some leftover coconut milk from making peanut sauce the other day I wanted to use it in a sauce. I looked around my fridge and pantry to see what was available and came up with this sauce. I had some carrots and other veggies and added them to the mix along with some curry powder. I ended up having some of the sauce with roasted chicken. Very tasty.
Curried Coconut Sauce
2 T. oil
1/2 c. chopped shallots
1 1/2 c. sliced carrots
1 c. chopped sweet pepper
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 qt. vegetable stock- or use whatever you have
1 1/2 c. coconut milk
2 tablespoons curry powder
salt to taste
Heat oil in a medium saucepan and saute the shallots until tender. Add the veggies and cook a few minutes more. Add the stock and cook on medium high heat until most of the liquid has cooked off. Add the coconut milk and curry powder and puree until smooth. Add salt, if needed. Serve sauce with pasta, rice, meats or cooked veggies.
