| Almond and Broccoli Curry Stir-Fry The Washington Post, December 23, 2009 Start by making the instant brown rice, and it will be ready for plating once the stir-fry is done. Ingredients: | |
| 1 1/2 cups | water |
| 2 cups | instant brown rice, preferably Minute brand |
| 1-inch | ginger root |
| 2 tablespoons | rice vinegar |
| 1 tablespoon | low-sodium tamari, (may substitute low-sodium soy sauce) |
| 2 teaspoons | toasted sesame oil |
| 3/4 pound | broccoli, cut into florets |
| 1 medium | red onion |
| 2 tablespoons | olive oil, plus more as needed |
| 1/3 cup | sliced skin-on almonds |
| 1 tablespoon | store-bought green curry paste, or to taste |
Leaves from 4 or 5 stems cilantro
Directions:
Heat the water in a medium saucepan over high heat. When it comes to a boil, add the rice and stir to combine. Once it returns to a boil, cover and remove from the heat.
Peel and grate the ginger root; place in a medium bowl along with the rice vinegar, tamari and sesame oil. Stir to combine.
Cut the broccoli into bite-size florets to yield 2 cups. If desired, cut some of the tender stalks into thin strips and add to the florets.
Cut the onion in half, then into very thin half-moon slices to yield about 1 1/2 cups.
Heat the olive oil in a wok or medium saute pan over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers.
Add the almonds and toast for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until they are very lightly browned.
Add the green curry paste or curry powder and stir to combine. When it is fragrant, add the onion and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes, until softened.
Add the broccoli and stir-fry for 2 minutes; it should still be barely crisp. Taste, and add curry paste or as needed. If the mixture seems dry, add a teaspoon or two of olive oil.
Add the tamari-ginger mixture and stir to coat evenly; cook until heated through and just bubbling. Remove from the heat.
Coarsely chop the cilantro leaves and add to the stir-fry, tossing lightly to combine. Remove from the heat.
Uncover the rice; divide it among individual shallow bowls, then top with the stir-fry mixture. Serve immediately.
