  • Add the split hot peppers, rice vinegar, pineapple juice, curry paste, fish sauce, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, ketchup, dark soy sauce and coconut milk, stirring to mix. Stir in 2 cups water.
  • Add the meats back to the pan, reduce heat, cover and simmer on low for thirty minutes.
  • Place the potatoes, pineapple and bok choy into the pan, cover again, and cook thirty minutes more.
  • Add the tomato wedges the last five minutes or so, right on top when you are certain the chicken is done.

  • To serve, select pieces of curry you like and top with the curry sauce from the pan and serve with rice.
