This is my version of massaman curry. It is probably nowhere near traditional, but I dont have access to traditional ingredients in the small town that I live in.

Steps

1

Add water to a large soup pot. Add anise, bouillon, cloves, bay leaves, cinnamon and ginger. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Use a slotted spoon or strainer to remove the solids and discard.
2

Peel yams. Either use microwave or oven to pre cook. You want them to be somewhat al dente so they hold up to simmering in the soup about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool. When cooled enough to handle, cut into 1 inch cubes.
3

Add chicken, carrots, garlic shrimp, cardamom, mirin, aminos, vinegar and fish sauce. Return to a simmer. Simmer 15 to 20 minutes until chicken is fully cooked. Stir often.
4

Add coconut milk, chili paste, curry paste, curry powder, turmeric, onion powder, basil, and 1/2 of the cilantro. Return to a simmer for 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings to your likeness.
5

Add sweet potatoes, peanuts and brown sugar and simmer 10 more minutes. Do a final taste and seasoning adjustment.
6

Serve in a bowl. Garnish with more fresh cilantro, and prepared jasmine rice. Enjoy.

cooking is a passion of mine. I started when I was very young and I had to drag a milk crate around to see over the counter. taught by a career cook (my grandmother ). I have always tried to push the boundaries of conventional cooking. I prefer cooking wild game. when I can get my hands on it, but fish is more readily available for me. I raise and butcher most of the livestock that I use for my conventional recipes. I hope everyone can find a few recipes they like in my list.
