I WAS LOOKING FOR A TASTE-ALIKE RECIPE TO THE THAI LOBSTER CURRY SOUP AT ZUPA'S AND FOUND THIS. I'M NOT SURE THAT IT REALLY TASTED JUST LIKE THE ZUPA'S ONE, BUT I STILL THOUGHT IT WAS VERY TASTY, AND WORTH MAKING AGAIN. ALSO... I DIDN'T HAVE LOBSTER - BUT IT WAS STILL GOOD WITH CHICKEN, AND IN THE FUTURE I MIGHT TRY IT WITH SHRIMP.
From the kitchen of: Some online site... that Katie found.
1 C onions
2 cloves garlic
2 tsp curry powder (I think if you used the right kind this would be GF?)
1 tsp cumin seeds (we used ground cumin)
1 tsp coriander seed (again, we used ground)
2 average potatoes
1 tsp chicken bullion
2 C water
14 oz coconut canned milk
15 oz stewed tomatoes
6 Tbs shredded sweetened coconut
1 tsp red pepper flakes (amazing what a tsp of this stuff can do - add more or less for what ever suits you. I thought 1 tsp was good)
6 oz lobster tail (I had about 2 C. cubed chicken)
Dice all vegetables.
Remove meat from the lobster tail and break into small pieces. (Or use chicken - the poor man's lobster)
Saute onion & garlic until translucent, then add curry, cumin, and coriander. Cook for a minute or so.
Add all other ingredients and boil until potatoes are tender and meat is cooked through (I used cooked cubed chicken, so I didn't worry about that part).
MAKES: Delicious leftover lunch on a cold day
