How To Make Jamie Oliver Thai Red Curry
- Cook Rice and Aubergine: In a deep non-stick pan over medium heat, add 1 mug of rice, 2 mugs of boiling water (600ml), and a pinch of sea salt. Cover and cook for 12 minutes. Add the aubergine rounds on top of the rice for the last 8 minutes. Keep the pan covered.
- Prepare and Cook Steak: Remove the sinew from the steaks and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Stand them fat side down in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Turn them once they’re golden and sear each side to your liking.
- Char Spring Onions: While the steak is cooking, trim and slice the spring onions into 2cm thick pieces. Add them to the pan with the steak to lightly char.
- Make Peanut Crush: Use a pestle and mortar to crush the dry roasted peanuts.
- Cook Aubergine Curry: Move the steak and spring onions to a plate to rest. Add the aubergine slices to the frying pan. Stir in the curry paste, followed by the coconut milk and half a can of water. Boil for 8 minutes or until the sauce thickens a bit.
- To Serve: Fluff up the rice and divide it among warm plates. Add slices of steak, spring onions, and aubergine. Pour any resting juices into the sauce and spoon it over the dish. Sprinkle with crushed peanuts and serve with lime wedges for squeezing.
