The Recipe

Butterbean Satay Curry

This Butterbean Satay Curry is a creamy, simple yet indulgent curry.

Servings: 2

Ingredients

• ▢ 2 tbsp dark soy sauce
• ▢ 2 tbsp peanut butter smooth or crunchy
• ▢ 2 cloves garlic minced
• ▢ 1 tsp curry powder
• ▢ ½ tsp chilli powder
• ▢ 300 g drained butterbeans from a tin
• ▢ 1 tin 400ml reduced-fat coconut milk
• ▢ 1 tsp olive oil

Instructions

• ▢
  Add the peanut butter, soy sauce, and curry powder to a small jug and stir (add some chilli powder or sriracha sauce if you like some heat).
• ▢
  Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the drained butterbeans, then mix in the prepped sauce.
• ▢
  Pour and stir in the coconut milk and simmer on high heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until sauce bubbles and starts to thicken – trust the process, then mixture will be quite then to start but once it starts bubbling the sauce will start to go thicker and creamier in texture.
• ▢
  Taste the curry and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with your preferred side, such as rice, toasted baguette or naan bread and a side salad.
