Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- ½ large yellow onion, chopped
- 1 to 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium Fuji apple, diced
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- Pinch of ground ginger
- Dash of turmeric
- 1 (13.5-ounce) can light coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar or sweetener of choice
- 1 tablespoon shredded coconut (optional)
- 1 to 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Sauté Aromatics: In a medium-large pot over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic. If they begin to stick to the pot, add a splash of water to deglaze and prevent burning.
- Cook Apples and Add Spices: Once the onion becomes translucent, add the diced Fuji apple. Cook until the apples soften slightly, then stir in the curry powder, ground ginger, and turmeric, ensuring that all ingredients are well coated with the spices.
- Add Liquids and Sweeteners: Pour in the light coconut milk, then add the granulated sugar (or your sweetener of choice), shredded coconut if using, and soy sauce. Stir everything well to combine all the flavors.
- Simmer the Curry: Bring the curry mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and to meld flavors.
- Season and Serve: Season with salt and pepper according to your taste preference. Serve the curry hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired for a pop of color and freshness.
Notes
- Adjust soy sauce quantity based on your preferred saltiness level.
- For a vegan diet, ensure the sugar or sweetener used is plant-based.
- Shredded coconut is optional but adds an extra layer of texture and flavor.
- This curry pairs well with steamed rice or flatbread.
- Feel free to substitute the Fuji apple with any sweet, firm apple variety.
- Adding a pinch of chili powder can give the curry a nice heat if desired.
