You
could make curry from fresh ingredients, curry powder, grind some chilies,
garlic, onions and all sorts of spices, but if you choose to take the shortcut
like me, just get a prepack curry paste. I got this from Cosway retail, brand
Deli Chef, Fish curry paste. (Recently I saw the packaging name been rename to
brand Mildura but still same fish image)
Taupok
is deep fried tofu or deep fried bean curd. I bought the rectangle shape and
cut into half. I prefer to cut it up as I do not want the curry sauce to be
squeezed out and splash all over my face or my shirt or getting into someone’s
eye. Be really careful while you have this especially if you are wearing a
white shirt, unless you are in the mood to change your shirt to some red polka dots
design.
Vegetable
here would be Okra aka ladies finger.
Why do we add squeeze lemon juice? To remove some slimy texture from the ladies finger, else the whole pot would be super slimy.
You can add milk in replace of Santan (coconut milk)
Add taupok first because texture is harder and tough, it takes longer time to be soft.
