Creamy Vegetable Curry Sauce

Author: Flavelo
Sauces and Gravies Recipes
The foundation of a good curry is the layering of spices. In this vegetable sauce, the veggies aren't just filler; the sweetness of the onion and bell pepper forms the base upon which the complex aroma of the curry powder is built. The coconut milk ties everything together in a silky embrace, softening the sharp edges of the spices.

Instructions

1 ✓

Dice the onion, carrot, and bell pepper into small, uniform cubes. Mince the garlic.

Tip: Smaller cubes cook faster and make for a better mouthfeel.
2 ✓

Sauté the onion in the oil until translucent.

Tip: Don't brown it, just soften it.
3 ✓

Add the garlic, carrots, and peppers, and sauté for 3-4 minutes.

Tip: Sautéing draws out the natural sweetness of the vegetables.
4 ✓

Sprinkle with curry powder and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds.

Tip: Spices need to 'bloom' in hot oil to release their full flavor.
5 ✓

Pour in the coconut milk, season with salt and pepper.

Tip: The liquid deglazes the pan, lifting any flavorful bits stuck to the bottom.
6 ✓

Add the peas and simmer for 10 minutes until the sauce is thick and the vegetables are tender.

Tip: Peas need very little cooking time to maintain their bright color and snap.
