Citrus Curry Dressing

July 12, 2016 by christine

Popping in with a quick recipe post because things are crazy this week at work. Poor Leela has been following me around the house the last few evenings wanting more play time, walk time, or something.

If you’re a fan of spicy curry, Maesri Prik Khing Curry Paste is a perfect pantry staple for fast and simple recipes. A little bit goes a long way, easily 4-6 meals from one little can.

It makes amazing Thai dishes paired with canned coconut milk in veggie tofu stir fries. And is even good sauteed with water or veggie broth for a lighter option. Great to simmer a small spoonful with rice, quinoa, or other grains. And awesome in simple blender salad dressings. This dressing packs a spicy, tangy zing from lemon juice, ginger, and the curry paste. But has a slight sweetness and creamy richness from the peanut butter and carrot.

Citrus Curry Dressing

  • 2 tbsp. peanut butter
  • 1” chunk fresh ginger
  • 1 tsp. spicy curry paste
  • 2 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp. miso paste
  • 1 carrot, chopped
  • ¼ cup water as needed

Place all ingredients into a high speed blender and blend to a smooth and creamy texture. Serve and enjoy! Makes 4 servings.

I coated a loaded meal salad with chopped tempeh, radishes, and cute little tomatoes from our AeroGarden.

It was about a 4-serving salad that was coated nicely.

And made a satisfying and hearty dinner.

The dressing is creamy and decadent with a feisty curry ginger flare.

      Thanks and that’s awesome about veggies. I’ve been trying to eat a variety of beans in place of nuts for energy and it’s been helping my running.

    I’ve never tried a curry dressing! That is a great idea!

    Hi Christine! I found you via Instagram oddly enough. I just wanted to say “hi” as I am a plant-based runner living in EDH! We basically instagrammed (yes I made that a word) the same rice wrap from Baagan recently! How funny. Anyway, I just wanted to say “hi” and tell you to keep up the great running and plant-based work. I have been plant-based for over 20 years and have been running almost as long – lately more trails and ultras but I still run the occasional road race since our area has so many. :) I wish I could devote the time to my website the way you have with yours. Well done!

      Hi and too funny, small world! Love Baagan and hope we can get together sometime! Awesome on 20 years, amazing! And I’m looking forward to more trail runs after a whole this year! Looking forward to reading more about your running!

    You should post a WIAW! I’m curious how you fuel a full day of eating/working /running!
    As much as i love running, I’m just as happy walking/exploring and way less ravenous. Plus easier on my knees!

      I should and maybe I will soon! Walking and exploring is nice too!
