    Utensils Used
    | 1. Peel potatoes, boil them partly in a cooking pot for 10-15 minutes, and cut in 1 to 2-inch pieces. | 2. Allow the coconut milk to separate and you will have about two cups of thick "cream" and one cup of | 3. thin "milk". In a small saucepan bring the milk to a simmer and add the chicken or pork. If you are | 4. using beef you will need another two cups of milk. Simmer the meat until it begins to become tender | 5. (beef takes longer, hence the additional milk). | 6. Put the coconut cream in a wok and bring to a boil, add the massaman paste and "stir fry" until the | 7. flavor is brought out and maximized. Add the remaining cream and curry paste to the meat. | 8. Add the peanuts. Taste and adjust the flavor until it is (just) sweet (by adding sugar), sour and salty | 9. (by adding tamarind juice, lime juice and fish sauce). | 10. Add the remaining ingredients and cook until cooked. | 11. Note : the potatoes used in Thailand for this dish are a yellow fleshed sweet potato of the type sometimes | 12. called a yam in the US. Western style potatoes can be used, but absorb less of the sauce and flavor. | 13. The potatoes act as a "moderator" to reduce the heat of the curry, and should not be left out. | 14. You can either serve it on a bed of Thai jasmine rice, or double the amount of potato and serve it alone. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
