Curry Pork ribs


It's been quite a while since I cooked curry.  So, managed to squeeze in this for dinner .... simple, just cook the curry, rice and blanch a vegetable and dinner is ready.





I used only 100 gm of this A+1 meat curry paste because it's fiery!





No coconut milk for this curry, used sugarless soymilk instead and if I didn't disclose, the people at the dining table didn't realise it!

Recipe for Curry Pork ribs

Ingredients
  • 600 gm pork ribs - cut into about 2.5 inch lengths
  • 600 gm Russet potatoes - peeled and cut
  • 100 gm A+1 curry paste for meat
  • 180 gm shallots
  • 5 pips garlic
  • 2 lemon grass - crushed
  • 500 ml Yeo's sugarless soymilk
  • 1 cup water
  • Some curry leaves
  • 2 star anise
  • a small piece of cinnamon stick
  • Salt and light soya sauce to taste
Preparation
  1. Wash and blanch the pork ribs in a pot of boiling water to remove scum, rinse in cold water, drain and set aside.
  2. Blend together the shallots and garlic.
  3. Stir-fry the curry paste with the blended ingredients, toss in the fresh curry leaves, star anise and cinnamon stick.
  4. Add in the blanched pork ribs, a cup of water and let it cook for about 30 mins., stirring occasionally to prevent it from drying up.
  5. When the pork ribs are a bit soft, add in the potatoes together with the soymilk.
  6. Let the curry simmer till the pork ribs are tender and thoroughly cooked.
  7. Add salt and light soya sauce to taste.
  8. Dish out and serve hot with plain rice, bread or roti canai.

    These really look delicious! I seldom cook with curry and will have to try it again. Do they have a strong curry taste?

    I too like cooking curry with soymilk or evoporated milk. They taste just as good. This dish kind of reminds me of home. My mom love cooking curry with pork ribs too but hers was more watery and with loads of vegetables in it.

    I just made chicken curry dish yesterday! I made extra for other recipes too. Frankly, haven't taken any pork curry for a very long time! People here, they usually make wild boar curry coz the meat is cheaper!

    My comment is gone again! Man! Gosh...I just hate it! Can't remember what I wrote yesterday. haha... Aiyoyo! Yeah, as you know I don't take pork often so I don't even cook this at home! People here love cooking pork curry too but with wild boar meat coz it's much cheaper.

    You are most welcome!

    You mean the curry paste or the curry dish itself? To me, it's fragrant but I added the curry leaves, star anise and cinnamon to give added fragrance and flavour.

    My doors are always open for you!

    Haven't tried with added veggie, think should be ok too, wholesome!

    Oh, wild boar curry is nice, quite difficult to get it here.

    I find this curry paste satisfactory. Think the factory is in Jln Tasek.

    They have curry paste for fish and another other for meat. It's quite popular here.

Mini lime marmalade chiffon cake

These little chiffon cupcakes were made with lime marmalade.  Other than orange marmalade I've never come across lime marmalade and so this went into my shopping basket when I was in Perth last.  It's slightly more sour than orange marmalade but it's delicious when you have it with butter or peanut butter slathered on a slice of freshly baked bread or toast!

Kai Chai Paeng aka Little chicken biscuit

K ai Chai Paeng or 'Little chicken biscuit' was one of my father's favourite item to take away whenever we stopped by Bidor, a small town south of Ipoh on the way to Kuala Lumpur, long ago before the North-South Highway came into existence.  Those days, Bidor's famous restaurant, Pun Chun ,was like a half-way house whereby travellers would stop by for their signature 'Ngap thui meen' or duck thigh noodles. Pun Chun restaurant is right in the middle of town along the main road and has been in operation for 70 years and their Kai Chai Paeng were of the thick, doughy type made with lard and some pork but now they also have the thin and crispy version. Another small town, known as Kampar which is nearer to Ipoh is also famous for their thin and crispy version of  Kai Chai Paeng.  However,  I'm not too sure which town is the originator of these 'chickenless', unique but absolutely aromatic 'Little chicken biscuit'.
