Creamy Pineapple Curry Sauce

Author: Flavelo
Sauces and Gravies Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes
This sauce is a rollercoaster of flavors: the tropical sweetness of pineapple meets earthy curry spices and creamy coconut milk. While it sounds fruity, it works brilliantly with savory dishes like chicken skewers or shrimp. Plus, the natural enzymes in pineapple make it an excellent tenderizing marinade.

Instructions

1 ✓

Dice the pineapple very small. Mince the onion and grate the ginger and garlic.

Tip: Grating ginger across the fibers prevents stringy bits in your sauce.
2 ✓

Heat the oil and sauté the onion until soft.

Tip: Caramelizing the onions brings out their natural sugars, forming a sweet base.
3 ✓

Add the garlic, ginger, and curry powder. Fry for 1 minute until fragrant.

Tip: This is called 'blooming' the spices. Essential oils in curry powder are fat-soluble and need heat to release their flavor.
4 ✓

Add the pineapple and cook for a few minutes until it releases juices and softens.

Tip: Heat mellows the acidity of the pineapple.
5 ✓

Pour in the coconut milk, season with salt, pepper, and chili flakes. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until thickened.

Tip: Don't boil too vigorously, or the coconut milk might separate.

Recipe FAQ

Can I use canned pineapple?
Yes, but fresh has better acidity and flavor. If using canned, reduce the added sugar or add a squeeze of lime juice.
