Thai Red Curry with Chicken and why leftover moussaka rocks...



Here is tonight's dinner in all its coco-nutty splendor. I browned some chicken breast chunks, then I added a good heaping tablespoon of red curry paste, 1/2 of a chopped large onion, one smallish eggplant, a large handful of fresh basil, and about 4 cups of spinach, followed by two cans of coconut milk. I let it simmer until the chicken was done, and served it in bowls over shredded cabbage and more raw spinach. It was really good, and I have enough left over for lunches for tomorrow.

I was pleasantly surprised today at lunch when I re-heated leftover moussaka and ate it over salad. The flavors had melded, and the cinnamon with the herbs was quite good second time around. Even the turnips had improved...

    Strange the magic that can occur in the fridge overnight :)
