My husband and I love Thai food, but going out on weeknights can be challenging with busy schedules. I wanted to create a Thai-inspired dinner that could double as an easy lunch the following day. The beef is fantastic in this dish, but chicken or pork would be equally delicious!\u2014Ashley Lecker, Green Bay,

I used my Ninja Foodie. The meat cooked just fine, no scorching as some mentioned. I just didn\u2019t find the dish to have that much flavor, or heat. I added extra of everything and it was better but still not right. I\u2019m tempted to try it again with some lime or zest and maybe cook some coconut milk separately with seasonings and broth to make a clean sauce reduction. I felt the meat and fat ruined the coconut sauce. Update: Ditch the sauce in the pot after cooking. Use same ingredients plus some red pepper powder and cornstarch. Cook it down. Fabulous. Use on the meat from the recipe.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":2,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2021-06-22","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"OliveFish"},"reviewBody":"Wow.

It worked once I got it into my spare pot, but I shouldn't have to do that.

I won't even try to re-do this one.

I truly wanted to love this recipe but sadly I didn't, I did everything as detailed in the recipe but the meat just didn't taste as good as I thought it should. I noticed others mentioned the 'burn' notice on the instant pot, I had the same experience, I quickly took the inside pot out and let it cool down, didn't actually burn the meat but I was quick to remove it. Just too many things to do to put this together and be disappointed, I hope others will try it, might just be me. <\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":3,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2022-04-03","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"BluePaw"},"reviewBody":"Love this recipe and always turns out great.

I browned the beef on the stove because my instapot sucks at searing. To be honest I hate the instapot because I get the burn notice so many times...but I always make a recipe exactly as written the first time and later will adjust to our liking. This is over the moon delicious. As soon as it was done, the sauce was watery like a soup (and so delicious I ate it like soup!) so I hit the saute button to cook it down a little bit and now it is velvety and thick. My husband who HATES coconut milk loved it. I think the peanut flavor covered the coconut enough for him to not notice it. This is TOTALLY going into our rotation!
