How to make Thai Curry Red Rice Soup
Let’s get started with Thai curry powder. It takes only few minutes to assemble the spices and many of you must be having the common spices in your kitchen pantry and it falls within our budget. 🙂
The fresh crushed coriander seeds, black pepper, turmeric powder, mustard powder and few more spices along with unsweetened coconut flakes make this curry powder super delicious.
It can be kept for a month in the kitchen spice rack and use it as and when required.
Red rice – this gluten free grain has many health benefits. It’s a great source of antioxidants and is a rich source of fiber and vitamin B6 and keeps a check on the bad cholesterol and yet so delicious that if you try it once I assure you that you will want more of it.
Assemble all the ingredients in a pot pan and cook for few minutes.
Generously squeeze lots of lemon juice on it and enjoy on those busy and cold week nights with your family.
A must try meal that will make you its biggest fan 🙂

Thai Curry Red Rice Soup
Ingredients
For curry powder
- 1/2 tsp coriander seeds
- 1/4 tsp crushed black pepper
- 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
- 1/2 tsp mustard powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin powder
- 1/4 tsp ginger powder
- 1/4 tsp chili powder
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper powder
- 1 tsp unsweetened dry coconut flakes
Others
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp dried garlic
- 1/2 tsp white sesame seeds
- 4 large Thai basil leaves
- 1/2 cup chopped red onion
- 1/2 cup broccoli florets
- 1/4 cup chopped baby corn
- 1/4 cup julienned carrots
- 1/4 cup red rice (rinsed)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1/4 cup water
- Lemon juice as per taste
Instructions
- In a glass bowl combine all the ingredients for the curry powder and keep it aside.
- Heat a nonstick pan/wok and add oil, garlic, sesame seeds, Thai basil leaves.
- Immediately add onions and saute well for a minute.
- Add broccoli, baby corn and carrots and mix again.
- Now add curry powder and mix well so that the vegetables are well coated.
- Now add red rice and coconut milk into the pan. Cover with a lid and cook on a low flame for approximately 10 minutes or until the milk is all absorbed. (Don’t let it burn).
- Now add vegetable broth and water and cook covered on a low flame for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender, soft and chewy.
- Just before serving add few drops of lemon juice and enjoy.
Notes
- Coriander powder can also be used instead of coriander seeds.
- This recipe is spicy so feel free to change the measurement of black pepper, chili powder and cayenne pepper to 1/8 tsp each.
- Curry powder can be made ahead of time and stored in glass jar container with a tight lid for 3 weeks. In this case don’t add coconut flakes to it. Just when ready to use mix unsweetened coconut flakes to the curry powder and enjoy.
- If you like softer red rice then cook for 5 more minutes before turning off the flame. Make sure to cook in low-medium flame covered.
- Brown rice can also be substituted for red rice.
- Since this recipe calls for cooking in a low flame covered for the rice to acquire the right texture it may take few extra minutes to cook.
