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 to 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon shredded coconut
- Parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Sauté Aromatics: In a medium-large pot over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic. If the mixture starts to stick to the pan, add a splash of water to deglaze and prevent burning, allowing the onion to become translucent.
- Add Apple and Spices: Once the onion is translucent, add the diced Fuji apple. Cook until the apple softens, then stir in the curry powder, ground ginger, and turmeric, ensuring the ingredients are evenly coated with the spices.
- Add Coconut Milk and Flavorings: Pour in the light coconut milk, then add the granulated sugar, shredded coconut if using, and soy sauce. Stir everything to combine well.
- Simmer the Curry: Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking and allow the flavors to meld.
- Season and Garnish: Season the curry with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with optional fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
