Quick and Easy Corned Beef Hash Recipe

I had some leftover corned beef in the refrigerator that was too much for one person to eat and a bit too little to reheat and serve by itself for dinner. I also had a few potatoes in the pantry that I needed to use and decided to get these two crazy kids together and made corned beef hash for dinner!

Thai Red Curry Shrimp Recipe


Stir fries are one of my quick go to meals. Chop up whatever vegetables and meat you have on hand, throw it in a frying pan with some sauce while rice or rice noodles cook and you have dinner. It’s a great quick meal.


I have Thai Basil growing in a pot on my patio. I’m experimenting with it and some ready made Thai sauces because I’ve never been to Thailand or even a good Thai restaurant so I’m not sure what real Thai tastes like.
Pin this post for later! 


But my recipe tastes good, so that what counts for me.

Thai Red Curry Shrimp

1 can of coconut milk (be careful. Coconut milk is a saturated fat. If you’re trying to watch the saturated fat, which I am, you might not want to add this ingredient or try this recipe every week.)
2 tablespoons red curry paste
1 bag of frozen shrimp (unless you’re lucky enough to get fresh)
A variety of chopped vegetables – bean sprouts, snow peas, mushrooms, bamboos shoots, peppers, carrots etc. (I just look in the fridge and see what I have)
¼ cup Thai basil (or regular fresh basil if you don’t have Thai. If you’re using dried herbs, use half this amount.)
2 tablespoons fish sauce

1. Mix curry paste, brown sugar, and  coconut milk in a bowl



2. Stir fry chopped vegetables and liquid mixture until the vegetables are almost tender crisp.










3. Add shrimp to the mixture and cook until the shrimp turns pink.




4. Serve over rice noodles or rice.
  
Eat. Enjoy. Repeat.
