Back to Black....
Its been too long, I shouldn't have left you without a dope recipe to cook up... Ok so I'll just stick to cooking and leave the rappin' to the pros...
So The Hubby and I went to NY in September and sad to say we couldn't resist The Big Apple's treats. Needless to say when we returned home it was harder than ever to get back on track with my vegan goals. All of that is changing at this very moment! I finally got settled into our new home and can refocus on my dietary goals...
Ok so as my first meal getting back to black I prepared a Red Curry Vegetable dish over jasmine rice. I'll share that recipe in my next post. So I'm kinda working backwards here, please forgive me and bare with me. You see, I'm so excited about the meal I made tonight (or last night depending on when I finally edit and post). I cooked up a Thai Coconut Potsticker Soup. You guys! When I say it was deliciousness in a bowl, it really is! So here are the list of ingredients you'll need:
2 Tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
1 sweet potato, peeled and cubed
2 tablespoons of red curry
1 teaspoon of curry powder
1 14oz of coconut milk
4 cups of vegetable broth
1 package of Ling Ling potstickers, (vegetables)
A nice heap of spinach leaves
Juice of a lime
Cilantro to garnish
Salt to taste, red pepper flakes (optional)
So after you gather all the yummy ingredients its time to put them together to make your own nice pot of deliciousness 🙌
In your large pot, add the olive oil, garlic, onions , red bell pepper and sweet potato.
(Cook on medium to high heat, stirring occasionally ) Once your onions are translucent and the potatoes are soft, add the curry and cook for another minute. Add salt, curry powder and red pepper flakes ( if you desire extra heat) Add coconut milk and vegetable broth, whisk to combine.
Allow the mixture to come to a boil, let it thicken. Add the potstickers and reduce heat to a simmer, cook for an additional 7 to 8 minutes. Add spinach leaves , allow to wilt.
Add the juice of the lime, stir once more. Add the cilantro to garnish. Serve immediately and enjoy! (Your taste buds will be dancing and thanking you!)
It seems like a lot, but it only takes 15 minutes to prep all your veggies and 15 to 20 minutes to cook! It's so worth it, I promise!!
If you want more substance with the main dish, you can also pair with rice, I add cilantro to my rice... yummo!
If you guys decide to make this dish, let me know how it turns out. And welcome back to black with me on my vegan journey!
