What's Cooking with Jean
Friday, December 14, 2007 once again, a must watch: The Minimalist


Can't recommend enough. In a world where recipes and cooking shows make cooking and life seem so complicated this guy brings sanity to it all.

Thai Ground Beef

This has become one of our favorites to throw together with ground beef or turkey on those weeknights when you crave a little Thai.


a few thinly sliced green onions
about a tsp. of minced garlic
1 pound ground beef or turkey
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 cup tomato sauce
1/2 cup light coconut milk
1 tbsp. brown sugar
1/4 tsp. grated lime rind
1 tbsp. fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon Asian fish sauce (optional)

3 cups rice or noodles

Coat a skillet with cooking spray. Add onions; sauté 5 minutes. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute. Add beef; cook 7 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring to crumble. (Drain grease, if necessary.)
Stir in curry powder and tomato sauce; cook until half of liquid evaporates (about 2 minutes). Add milk and next 4 ingredients (through fish sauce); cook 2 minutes or until slightly thickened.
I serve over rice or noodles. (Sprinkle fresh cilantro if you'd like and green onions.)
