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.

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. Fo Fa -

Vegetarian Curry Vegetarian Curry
I adapted a curry recipe from "vege dining", a website I love.It is free of animal derived ingredients and doesn't use a lot of oil, so it's ideal to feed to small children as well.Add richness using sesame paste. You could probably use peanut butter instead. Adjust the amount of spices to taste. Reduce the curry powder for small children. Try to use preservative and MSG-free ketchup and sauce as much as possible. If you are allergic to wheat, dilute rice flour, kudzu starch, or katakuriko with water and add at the end to thicken the sauce. Recipe by Naokki- cookpad.japan -
