Curry Yogurt, Bacon & Anchovies

At the height of summer, great tomatoes don’t need much, but this dish gives them plenty to play with. Ripe heirloom tomatoes and tiny Sprinkles are piled over a cool, creamy curry yogurt sauce with fresh jalapeño, then lightly drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil and finished with crispy bacon, anchovies and fresh chives. It’s an umami flavor explosion—salty, smoky, savory, spicy and just a little sweet.

The curry yogurt is definitely better made a day ahead. An overnight rest gives the curry and turmeric time to meld with the yogurt, Kewpie mayonnaise and lime. Serve the finished platter in the middle of the table with thick slices of grilled sourdough for scooping up the tomatoes and curry yogurt. It’s a terrific summer side dish or appetizer to share.

Green Herb Chutney, Yogurt, Jasmine Rice

Imagine tender grilled chicken thighs, in an authentic butter masala sauce, topped with a bright, herbaceous cilantro-mint chutney and a drizzle of yogurt—served with a scoop of fragrant jasmine rice—every bite smoky, tangy, and layered with flavor.

Chicken thighs are cooked on the grill for a smoky char, chopped, then finished in butter, and simmered in the warm, aromatic masala sauce.

The green chutney spooned on top adds a fresh, herbaceous lift, with a kick from chili and ginger and a subtle richness from roasted peanuts. The lightly thinned yogurt brings cooling creaminess, balancing the spice and tying the flavors together.

This colorful Indian-inspired dish combines fire-kissed, juicy chicken in a spiced butter masala sauce with the zesty, vibrant chutney and silky yogurt, creating a harmonious medley of flavors and textures that’s both comforting and exhilarating.

Sultry Coconut Curry Noodles with Shrimp

This yellow curry noodle dish carries a sultry allure, with its velvety textures and deeply spiced flavors that envelop the palate in warmth.

It has a fragrant, creamy broth with a balance of spice and richness. The aromatic shallots, ginger, garlic, and jalapeño are sautéed in olive oil. Curry powder and ground turmeric deepen the flavor before coconut milk and chicken stock create a smooth, flavorful base. A touch of cornstarch thickens the broth, while fish sauce adds serious umami notes.

Plump shrimp are simmered until just cooked, absorbing the warm, spiced broth and taking on the gorgeous golden color. Served over chewy-tender noodles, this dish is comforting, super flavorful, and mildly spicy. A garnish of fresh cilantro and basil add bright herbal notes while red jalapeño brings a bit more color and heat.

Thai-Style Cod, Panang Curry

Thai-Style Cod, Panang Curry

🌸🌿 Thai-Style Pan-Seared Pacific Cod 🌿🌸
Panang Curry, Fried Basil
Bell Peppers, Onion, Ginger, Peanuts, Coconut, Lime

Panang Curry, with its savory blend of shrimp paste, Thai chilies, and aromatics such as lemongrass, kaffir lime, and galangal is heavenly when paired with Wild Alaska Pacific Cod. Cod is a very pleasant fish with a slightly sweet, mild clean taste and a lean flaky texture.

Together, the result is a delightful dish that is just bursting with flavors. Bell peppers, onion, and ginger form the vegetable base; where roasted peanuts add crunch and nuttiness; a drizzle of coconut milk adds creamy tropical notes; and a squeeze of lime adds that sour punch.

The best part is plenty of fried basil leaves, adding shattering herbal notes. Jasmine rice is served on the side to sop up what might be left of that exotic fragrant curry.
