Spicy Bamboo Shoots with Sticky Rice Recipe By The Baking Nutritionist

This Spicy Bamboo Shoots with Sticky Rice Recipe is a perfect light dinner or lunch. I went to the shop to buy jackfruit. I came home with bamboo shoots and thai red curry paste. This is very common for me. I often go into the shop with the ingredients for a specific recipe in mind. I then see another ingredient and the original plan for dinner goes completely out the window. To make this recipe vegan-friendly, replace the milk with coconut milk and the natural yogurt with coconut yogurt. Not the traditional accompaniment to a Thai curry, I used arborio rice as I felt the texture was ideal for what I had in mind. Asian stores stock the proper “sticky rice” if you fancy trying it.

Ingredients:

1 tbsp rapeseed oil
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1 thumb-sized piece of ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, peeled and thinly sliced
1 red chilli, deseeded and thinly sliced
1 tin (225g) bamboo shoots, drained and rinsed
1 tsp thai red curry paste
1 tsp tomato puree
1 tsp cornflour
Approx. 100ml milk
1 tsp coconut cream
2 tbsp natural yogurt
Sticky rice, springs onions and coriander, to serve

Method:

1. Heat the oil over a medium heat and cook the shallot, ginger, garlic and half of the chilli for 5 minutes. Add in the bamboo shoots and cook for a further 3 minutes.
2. Mix in the curry paste, tomato puree and cornflour, coating all the vegetables, followed by the milk, coconut cream and a splash of boiling water. Leave to simmer for 15 minutes, stirring often and adding a splash of water or milk if the sauce becomes dry.
3. Remove from the heat and stir in the natural yogurt.
4. Serve immediately with a garnish of spring onion and the remaining red chilli, alongisde coriander-infused sticky rice.
