Description

Serve this intensely flavored curry — made with Thai red curry paste and coconut milk from the supermarket's Asian foods section — over steamed jasmine rice. A side salad of bean sprouts drizzled with Asian salad dressing would be a cooling accompaniment; follow it with mango slices.

Ingredients

1 pound top sirloin, cut crosswise into thin strips
2 teaspoons Thai red curry paste
4 tablespoons Asian stir-fry oil or peanut oil
12 ounces asparagus, trimmed, cut into 1 1/2-inch lengths (3 1/2 cups)
1 1/2 cups canned unsweetened coconut milk
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
Lime wedges

Directions

  1. Place beef and curry paste in medium bowl. Stir to coat beef thoroughly. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover; chill.)
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large skillet over high heat. Add asparagus and sauté until crisp-tender and beginning to char slightly, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer asparagus to bowl.
  3. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to skillet. Add curry-coated beef in single layer. Cook over high heat without stirring until bottom of beef begins to char slightly, about 2 minutes. Add coconut milk and cook, stirring often, until sauce is bubbling and slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. Add asparagus and heat through. Stir in basil. Squeeze lime wedges over mixture and serve.
