    Thai Red Curry Black-eyed Peas

    Thai Red Curry Black-eyed Peas

    Red Curry Peas

    Red Curry Peas

    Both a pot of black-eyed peas and a pot of red-curry are hot saucy comfort foods. This is a super easy recipe which harmonizes the main elements of two cultural dishes.   If you buy a bag of the peas or a jar of curry sauce they have similar cooking instructions and ingredients.  I swapped ingredients so perfectly I finally got my bean hating wife to enjoy a hot bowl of legumes with me.

    For my version I went with the old fashioned black-eyed peas and pork recipe.  I swapped out red curry paste for the ketchup and reduced fat coconut milk for water.  If you have significant cardiovascular issues you might want to use water or soy milk instead of the coconut milk.  I also swapped the bacon or ham that my family traditionally used for grilled chicken breast, grilled in a George Foreman grill.

    After cooking the dish for a little while you can add another tablespoon of the red curry if it's not spicy enough or add more coconut or other milk if it is too spicy.

    Ingredients:

    • 1 11 oz. bag of fresh shelled black-eyed peas or the equivalent of frozen or canned
    • 1 grilled chicken breast cut into small, bite-sized pieces
    • 1 cup of unsalted chicken broth and ½-1 more in case it dries up
    • 1 cup reduced fat coconut milk- substitute water or soy milk if you have cardiovascular disease as coconut milk is high in saturated fat. ½ cup more coconut milk in case it's too spicy.
    • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
    • 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
    • 2 tablespoons red curry paste or 3 if you like it a bit spicier
    • Garnish 2 tablespoons chopped green onions

    Instructions:

    1. Stir-fry the red curry paste in a medium sized pot with 1 tablespoon of olive oil until it's darker in color but not yet charred.
    2. Put the rest of the ingredients into the pot and bring to a boil.
    3. Turn down the heat to medium or medium low and let simmer checking occasionally for 30 minutes adding ½-1 cup more broth if it dries up.
    4. Serve with the chopped green onion as garnish.
