Servings: 4
Calories: 634kcal
Equipment
- Food processor
- Large wok
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp sunflower oil
- 2 mangoes halved, stoned and flesh cut away in cubes
- 200 ml water
- 2 tbsp palm or light brown sugar
- 500 g tempeh or seitan cut into bite-sized cubes
- 400 ml coconut milk
- 8 baby tomatoes quartered
- sea salt
- spring onions chopped, to garnish
For the curry paste:
- 4-6 candlenuts or macadamia nuts
- 2 fresh red bird's-eye chillies coarsely chopped
- 3 shallots chopped
- 2 thick lemongrass stalks outer leaves removed and the stalks bashed and chopped
- 1 long, thin green chilli coarsely chopped
Method
- First, make the curry paste. Put all the paste ingredients in a food processor and process until a fine paste forms, scraping down the side of the bowl as necessary. Alternatively, you can use a pestle and mortar.
- Heat a large wok over a high heat. Add the oil and swirl it around. Reduce the heat slightly, add the curry paste and stir-fry until it is lightly coloured. It’s important to cook the shallots at this point, and don’t stop stirring, because the paste can quickly burn.
- Add the mangoes and stir until all the pieces are coated in the paste. Stir in the water, sugar and a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer just until the mangoes begin to soften.
- Add the tempeh, coconut milk and tomatoes, and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for a further five to seven minutes until the tomatoes begin to break down and the flavours blend. Taste and adjust the salt, if necessary. Garnish with spring onions and serve.
