Oh my gosh you guys, you have to make this. It was inspired by my husband's lazy cooking style. He was wanting red curry chicken but couldn't be bothered chopping chicken and making the sauce so he simply fried up some ground turkey and added some red pepper paste. I tried the leftovers the next day and quickly thought of all kinds of yumminess this simple combo could make.
You don't need a lot to make this and I cheated and used a premade pizza crust.
This is my husband's diamond amongst his rough cookin. I bumped it up by adding a chopped onion, 2 cloves of garlic and some salt. Gold, baby.
I am using regular basil on this pizza but the first few times I made it, I used Thai basil which I prefer. I was unable to find any today.
If you make your own crust, you will have to increase the oven temperature.
Tasty Thai Pizza
1 premade pizza crust
1 package of ground turkey or chicken (450 gr) - you will have some left over
1 1/2 tbsp red curry paste
1 onion diced
2 cloves of garlic minced
1 cup of spinach (more if you like)
1 1/2 cups of grated mozzarella
1/4 cup of grated parmesan
the cream from the top of a can of coconut milk (about 1/2 cup)
1 cup of basil
salt to taste
1 tbsp of veg oil or coconut oil
sesame chilli oil (optional)
Begin by heating a frypan over medium heat. When hot, add the onion and garlic and saute for a few minutes. Add the ground turkey and break it into small pieces. Cook until the turkey is just done and add the paste and salt. Mix well and cook for another few minutes. Remove from heat. This can be made ahead of time and refrigerated.
Preheat oven to 350.
Open the can of coconut milk and spoon the cream found on the top onto the pizza crust. Spread the spinach over the crust then 1 cup of the mozzarella. Spread the turkey mixture evenly over the pizza (you will not use all of it) then top with the rest of the mozzarella and the parmesan. Bake for 25 minutes, your oven may be stronger and may only need 20 min. Top with tons of basil (because you can never have too much basil) and drizzle with sesame chilli oil.
