I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Describe the preparation steps of your recipe
soak washed rice in water mixed with ground turmeric and dried sour fruit slices overnight wash soaked rice in several changes of water, then drain combine coconut milk, peppercorns, salt and washed rice into a mixing bowl set aside for 1 hour for flavours to infuse
use a hammer to crack the mature coconuts outdoors
i do not reserve the coconut water
crack the coconuts into small chunks to allow the hard outer shell to fall off
discard the hard outer shells and reserve the chuncks of coconut flesh with the thin brown skin layer
give it a wash/ rinse
add half of the coconut flesh into the thermomix bowl and grate sp9/ 5-10secs
set aside and repeat with balance of batch
add first batch back into thermomix jug together with 500g water and blend sp9/ 10-15secs
pour coconut mixture into a nut bag and milk it
you should yield approx 500g of coconut milk
the leftovers in the nut bag is fresh dessicated coconut, to be used however you fancy - cakes, deserts, coconut slice....taste it, its delicious!
freshly made coconut milk only lasts in the fridge for 2-3days max
if you have excess, freeze them in jars
prepare rice by
either tipping it directly into the varoma dish, ensuring there is a hole in the middle for the steam to get through (you get a less sticky rice this way)
or putting the rice in ramekins, small chinese rice bowls or 1 shallow bowl that's large enough to hold all the rice and fits into the varoma dish (you get a stickier rice this way as when it cooks it retains the moisture in the bowl the rice is in)
place the turmeric, long green chillies and birds eye chillies into thermomix bowl and chop sp7/ 3secs
scrape down and chop again if required
add chicken pieces, coconut milk and stalks of lemongrass and place varoma on top, and cook 25mins/ varoma/

Tip
Taste the coconut milk you have made. Its delicious and totally different from the canned version. Try making it, its very easy to do!
The chicken curry is a very simple and delicious curry and taste just as good with normal steamed rice also.
