It has been brrrr here lately. I've been craving hot soups, stews, teas anything warm to heat me up. I'm trying to be more mindful about maintaining a high raw diet (even in the cold) - so right now spicy dishes especially curries are a favourite.
Basic Raw Curry Sauce
- 2 large zucchinis (peeled)
- 1/4c of soaked cashews
- 1t of maple syrup
- 3-4T of curry paste (I like green but go with whatever you like)
- 3T of coconut oil (melt over v low heat - will melt at body temp)
Toss all in a vitamix or high speed blender pulse until well mixed. Serve over rice, lightly steamed veggies (cauliflower and broccoli is really good or quinoa and raisins for a warming high raw meal.
A little more heat Raw Curry Sauce
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 2 large zucchinis (peeled)
- 1c of Coconut Milk (not the canned kind - the Milk kind) - - or almond milk if you can't find coconut - * if you use almond throw in a couple of tablespoons of shredded coconut
- 2T of yellow curry paste or powder (I prefer the paste)
- 2T of Avocado or Olive Oil
- 1/4 small spanish onion chopped
- 1/2C of soaked cashews
- 1/2t of cayenne (1/4 if you don't like things too spicy)
- 1t maple syrup
- 4T of white wine (fine without - amazing with)
Same as above give it all a good blending until smooth in a high speed blender
Tomato Raw Curry Sauce
- 2T of Olive Oil
- 1/2 Medium onion chopped
- small thumb of ginger peeled
- 2 garlic cloves chopped
- 1/2t of tumeric
- 1t of ground cumin
- 1t of yellow curry powder (to taste)
- 2 medium tomatoes
- 1/2t of maple syrup
- 1 small green chilli
- 1/2 a lemon squeezed
Blend all together until very well until smooth in a high speed blender. This is great over cooked potatoes and raw peas or with rice. This would probably be really tasty over zucchini pasta but, I haven't tried it yet.
Raw Thai Red Curry
- 2 red chilies (sliced in half tops off)
- 3 green onions
- 1/2 red pepper
- zest of one lime
- thumb of ginger
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 piece of fresh coconut meat (if you have it - shredded is okay if you don't about 3T)
- 1tsp of fresh ground pepper
- 1/2 a lime juice (squeeze)
- 1T of Olive Oil
- 1/2 Cup of Coconut Milk
Blend blend blend!
