    A big hit! My husband, who is not a pineapple or coconut fan, loved this dish. It was very easy to make. Thank you Sarah for your wonderful videos! Keep them coming!!

    Surprise, Surprise! Loved the Beef and Pineapple Red Curry and so did my husband. It was a bit costly for the two of us because did not have any of the ingredients. It wil be less expensive next time as I now have red curry and Jasmine rice. I also purchased sirloin steak with very little fat. Can you add calorie and fat information. Love not thinking about what is for dinner. Print, grab, and go!
