Mild Pork Curry with Coconut Milk (simple & easy)
This easy Filipino curry is very mild (add chilies to add heat!), but fills your house with a nice curry aroma. Satisfies your curry and coconut craving too! Great with steamed white rice.
First, choose your protein. Goes with chicken, pork, or beef. I should try if it goes with lamb... Soon.
I used pork in this one, tail end in fact. Love it's fatty goodness, and bones in sauce make it tastier.

Homemade Restaurant-Style Pork Curry Homemade Restaurant-Style Pork Curry
Before payday, enjoy this budget-friendly and delicious pork curry made with 'pork scraps'. Even though it uses store-bought roux, it's definitely different from your usual curry. The origin of this recipe: 'Curry block meat' is often sold, but it seems scarce, tough, and expensive. I love pork curry, so I tried making a restaurant-style curry at home. Just tasting it makes you want rice!

Easy Coconut, Chicken & Rice Curry Easy Coconut, Chicken & Rice Curry
An easy main meal.I really like the curries with coconut milk, plus this just used regular old yellow curry powder (English curry I believe). I used some left over rice, and it's more wait for it to cook, than real work. Heat level is adjustable to your preference. Plus you can use other proteins like shrimp or tofu if you desire. Just adjust the cooking times for what you use. Just so you know, the pictures, I'm making a half recipe.As I made this, it wasn't really what I would consider spicy. The wife didn't complain, and had 2 helpings, unusual for her.
