I am also breaking my rule of under 30-minute dishes here, but since you don't really have to watch this one, it can be an exception. Plus, it feeds 4-5 standard people.
Estimated cook time: 45 minutes - 1 hour
Estimated cost: $20-$25
Ingredients:
Uncooked duck (Ask the butcher to cut it into small-medium sized pieces)
1 cup of curry paste
3-4 cups of coconut milk
1/2 cup of fish sauce
Vegetables (NOTE: This depends on what type of curry you are making. If green, then use lemongrass, basil, etc...if yellow, use potatoes, basil...tomatoes can be added too, if desired)
Chili sauce/paste (If you have chili peppers, cut them up and make a paste...if not, mix some sriracha with some other type of pepper and make it paste-like)
Directions:
1.) Add approximately 2 tbsp of oil and 1/2 cup of curry paste and heat for 1 minute.
2.) Add the duck and mix. Continue to cook until the duck is a light brown.
3.) Add the coconut milk once the duck is browned and cook at medium heat.
4.) Add the rest of ingredients (vegetables, fish sauce, etc.)
5.) Now just let is simmer for about 20 minutes. Taste it during this time. Add more chili if needed or even curry paste, depending on how sweet (yellow curry) you want it to be.
7.) Bon Apetite!
