Nadiya Hussain taps into her Thai ancestry for a vibrant peanut vegetable curry that’s a family favourite during Ramadan. “Since discovering that my family ancestry links to Thailand, it is the cuisine that sits right beside my Bangladeshi cooking,” says former Great British Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain, author of new cookbook Rooza.

“I am always learning and experimenting with Thai recipes. Of all the curries, this vibrant peanut vegetable curry is one of my favourites to make and share with my family, especially during Ramadan.”. Serves: 6. Ingredients:. For the sticky rice:. 600g Thai sticky rice (found in most supermarkets).
For the paste:. 1 onion, roughly chopped. 1 lemongrass stalk, roughly chopped. 3 Thai red chillies. 6 cloves of garlic. 5cm piece of peeled ginger, roughly chopped. 2 tbsps fish sauce. 1 lime, juice only. 2 tbsp chilli powder. 1 tsp palm or brown sugar. 1 tsp ground cumin.
1 tsp ground coriander. 2 tsp shrimp paste. For the vegetables:. Oil, for frying. 2 tbsp smooth peanut butter. 1 whole squash, peeled and chopped into chunks (700g). 4 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped into chunks. 2 red peppers, chopped into chunks. 2 x 400ml tins of coconut milk.
400ml cold water. 100g spinach, roughly chopped. To serve:. 200ml oil. 150g peanuts. Handful of fresh coriander, finely chopped. Method:. 1. Before we do anything, let’s start by sorting out the sticky rice. By the time that is cooked, we will have this curry made. For the sticky rice, you need to make sure you wash it really well till the water runs clear. You can use the hot tap water to remove the starch. When it runs clear, drain the rice in a colander that has very small holes so the rice grains don’t escape.
