    Red Curry Shrimp and Black Bean Noodles

    Thai Red Curry Shrimp

    Thai Red Curry Shrimp with Black Bean Noodles

    With all the political conflict going on, sometimes you get home and want something so good that it totally takes your mind off of it.   I mean good in that it is delicious and good that it is surprisingly full of what your body needs.    This recipe is that. 

    Several months ago I found these ready made Thai red curry black bean spaghetti noodles in the picture below.  I got excited because someone else was going with the delicious taste of Thai food and making it healthier.  I bought several packages.   The taste was not so great though.  Neither my wife nor I really liked it much after the recommended 1 minute in the microwave.  It comes out of the package looking kind of like dog food, Blah.

    The two packets I still had sat in our pantry for over 6 months.  Finally, it occurred to me yesterday to make a red curry as usual only adding the black bean packet as an extra ingredient.  It worked really well.

    Between the red curry and the shrimp I not only salvaged the black bean noodles, It was insanely delicious.   I'm not getting paid by the noodle company nor am I trying to curry favor except maybe for curry.  The red curry shrimp overwhelms any strange flavor and speaks for itself.

    Thai Red Curry Black Bean Noodles Ingredients

    The Ingredients I Used

    The black bean package states that it has, "mild" red curry.  If you are afraid of curry, like many people not accustomed to Thai curry, you don't have to add much more.  For me, I like the amount on the instructions of the curry paste.  I didn't deviate much from the instructions on the red curry paste package.  I just used olive oil for a healthier oil.  I was out of lite coconut milk so I improvised with a little cream of coconut mixed with water.  Coconut milk has so much saturated fat, you will want to use a lite coconut milk for sure.

    Black Bean Noodles

    Mod is always reminding me that she is not a fan of beans so I am not sure if black bean noodles are really very Thai.   The back of the package says, "Product of Thailand", so I guess it is somewhat Thai.  The cool thing is that beans are a great source for a low-glycemic noodle.  They also pack quite a bit of protein with 22 grams.   That's like drinking a protein shake!  This recipe is definitely going on my list for post workout protein.  The dish is also nice enough to be worthy of a nice dinner with a date or for entertaining guests.

    Vegetables

    For the vegetables we had a cup of each snap peas and small carrots left from eating chicken wings and they worked great.  You could use bamboo shoots, potatoes cut up or green beans.  You could probably also go for almost any vegetable of similar size and consistency and probably come out okay.

    How I cooked it

    I followed the instructions on the Mae Ploy red curry paste package pretty close with some of my own variations based on what I know I like.  I linked to the paste  so you can get it all from Amazon shipped.  As of now I don't get paid by Amazon as no one has ordered with my affiliate links.  I use them to enrich the value since you can just easily order the ingredients this way.  Just throw the noodles in as the last ingredient.  I left out the sugar or sweetener mae ploy recommends and couldn't tell the difference at all.

    Ingredients:

    • 1 pound medium shrimp tail off if possible
    • 2 tablespoons of red curry paste, one tablespoon if you want to be cautious or 3 if you are adventurous
    • 1 and ½ cup lite coconut milk and ½ cup water
    • 1 cup ea. snap peas and baby carrots
    • 1 package Discover Asian black bean noodles with mild red curry sauce
    • 2 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 sprig cilantro for garnish if so desired

    Instructions:

    1.  Stir-fry the curry paste in the oil and then add 1 cup of coconut milk.  Alternatively, if you had to improvise like me the cream of coconut and water mixed.
    2.  Add the shrimp and keep on cooking at medium high, stirring often.
