If you've been reading my blog for very long then you probably already know that I have a slight obsession with making curries.
I love curries. And I have made it one of my goals this year to create a really good curry recipe. And I must say, this is my absolute best one yet! Plus it's super easy.
My picture on the other hand... hmm. Maybe my next goal should be to get really good at taking pictures when there's not a lot of light available. It. has. not. stopped. raining.
Avocado Curry, makes 4-6 servings. Slightly adapted from this recipe.
For the sauce: 1 medium white onion, 2 cloves garlic, 1 small green bell pepper, 1 can tomato paste, 1 can coconut milk, 1 ripe avocado, 1 teaspoon coarse salt, 1 tablespoon curry powder, 1/4 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne and 1/4 teaspoon paprika.
In a food processor blend together all the above ingredients into a sauce. Heat up the sauce on the stove top and serve over your choice of sauteed veggies (or, gasp, meat) and rice. I used colorful bell peppers, asparagus, zucchini and pineapple in mine. Go crazy.
This sounds amazing! I am a sucker for anything avocado (made the most yummy chocolate avocado pudding yesterday); so I am definitely going to have to try it.

Yum!!
My favourite curry recipe is Heston Blumenthal's tikka masala. It involves hours of work and he recommends building a tandoor in your backyard, but it's so delicious!!!

What a great idea! Have you considered other kinds of fruit curries? Is avocado a fruit? Okay, so vegetable curries are the norm but avaocado is definitely a new one! Anyway, I'm thinking about a kim chee recipe I got from somewhere and it contained, to my delight, a lot of fruit. Like chunks of orange and raisins and apple.
I'm thinking a curry might be made with similar flavor nuggets.

It is one of my favorite fruits. It tastes great with everything inclusive with Mexican food.

Looks like a great curry base, do you think it could be combined with prawns. I'm going to try it with a little seafood.
