This sauce gets its color and signature flavor from ripe red chilies. Serve it over rice, or mixed with sautéed meats, tofu or vegetables of your choice.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil or ghee
2 to 3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger
2 shallots or 1/2 red onion
1 medium red bell pepper
1 tablespoon Frontier Co-op® Curry Powder
1/2 teaspoon Frontier Co-op® Crushed Red Chili Peppers, or 1/2 of a whole Frontier Co-op® Birdseye Chili Pepper, crumbled
Juice and zest of 1 lime
2 cups coconut milk

Directions

In a medium-sized skillet, heat oil or ghee.
Add minced garlic, ginger, shallot or onion, red bell pepper and cook, stirring, until tender.
Sprinkle in curry powder, dried chilies, lime juice and zest. Stir in coconut milk and puree with an immersion blender or in a food processor until smooth.

Recipe Note:

The flavor and heat will differ slightly based on which chili pepper you use. Birdseye chilies have a higher heat unit rating than crushed red chilies. Adjust the quantity of either to your heat level preferences.
