👨‍🍳 Step-by-Step Method

Step 1: Red Curry Paste Taiyar Karein

Dried red chilies ko garam paani mein approximately 10 minutes ke liye soak karein, taaki woh soft ho jayein.

Ab soaked chilies ko shallots, garlic, lemongrass, galangal ya ginger aur ek pinch salt ke saath grinder mein daalein. Ingredients ko blend karke ek smooth aur aromatic red curry paste bana lein.

Agar paste bahut dry lage, to thoda sa paani add karke desired consistency tak blend kar sakte hain.

Step 2: Paste Ko Bhunein

Ek pan mein cooking oil garam karein. Taiyar ki hui red curry paste ko pan mein daalein.

Medium flame par approximately 2–3 minutes tak paste ko continuously stir karte hue bhunein, jab tak raw smell kam na ho jaye aur paste se delicious aroma aane lage.

Step 3: Chicken Ya Shrimp Add Karein

Ab diced chicken ya shrimp ko pan mein add karein aur achhi tarah mix karein.

Chicken use kar rahe hain to ise kuch minutes tak cook karein, jab tak chicken ka outer surface halka golden ho jaye. Shrimp use karne par overcook na karein, kyunki shrimp jaldi cook ho jata hai.

Step 4: Coconut Milk Daalein

Ab coconut milk ko dheere-dheere pan mein pour karein.

Coconut milk add karte waqt continuously stir karte rahein, taaki curry paste aur coconut milk achhi tarah combine ho jayein.

Flame ko medium-low rakhein aur curry ko kuch minutes gently simmer hone dein.

Step 5: Vegetables Add Karein

Ab sliced bell pepper, bamboo shoots aur halved cherry tomatoes curry mein add karein.

Medium-low flame par approximately 8–10 minutes tak simmer karein, jab tak vegetables tender ho jayein aur curry ka texture creamy aur flavorful ho jaye.

Step 6: Seasoning Aur Garnishing

Ab fish sauce, palm sugar, kaffir lime leaves aur Thai basil leaves add karein.

Sabhi ingredients ko gently mix karein aur curry ko 1–2 minutes aur simmer hone dein.

Taste check karein. Aap apni preference ke according fish sauce, palm sugar ya spice level adjust kar sakte hain.

💡 Cooking Tip

Chili ki heat kam karni ho to dried red chilies ke seeds nikal kar paste banayein. Isse curry ka beautiful red color aur spicy flavor maintain rahega, lekin heat comparatively kam ho jayegi.
