Coconut Curry Dressing

March 3, 2017 Jump to Recipe | Pin Recipe Print Recipe

Savory and bright, this curry dressing kicks it up a notch

Last Updated February 6, 2018
Thai coconut curry dressing served on kale carrot mango cabbage salad.

This dressing is so addicting you’ll want to eat salads 3x a day.

To date, I haven’t been able to find anything like it at the grocery store. Although I’ve been served something similar in a trendy Uptown restaurant.

It couldn’t be any easier to make in a Vitamix and it tastes good on everything.

Grab the few ingredients and blend some up. Your dinner guests will give you a 5-star rating.

Here’s our Coconut Curry Dressing.

Dress to impress

I’ve been making this dressing for my dinner guests. It’s always a huge hit.

So flavorful, so unique (and shhh… so easy).

It starts with any Asian-inspired salad. Dress it up in it’s Sunday best and you’ve got a winner.

(Say hi, Lucy!)

Thai coconut curry dressing with small black dog named Lucy in background.

The original inspiration came from The Wicked Noodle’s blog. I absolutely loved her version of this dressing. But the process had more steps than I had the patience for (think blend, then boil down). In total, it was a 15 minute process… for dressing.

Worth it, because it’s absolutely delicious. Problem was I would only make it for special occasions.

Thai coconut curry dressing up close.

With a little tinkering and with the help of our Vitamix, I got the process down to 3 minutes flat.

It’s just as delicious and much much easier. Now I can make it for any-ole lunch.

And you should too!

Bottom line: 3 minutes, super delicious.

A perfect Vitamix recipe.

Go make some now!

    (I used the Vitamix ONE to make the dressing.) I had been looking for a good, simple Thai curry dressing and this fits the request! Very tasty and will definitely keep this one in the rotation.

    How long does the ‘dressing’ last for? Thinking of pairing with coconut rice and asparagus but know I will have plenty left over.

      Hi Sarah, can you recommend replacement for peanuts? .

      We usually keep homemade dressings in a sealed container for 7-10 days refrigerated.

      Tiffany, you can try cashews, but the flavor of the peanut plays a pretty key role here.

    What kind of coconut milk is used? Is it the kind in a can or the kind that replaces regular milk in the larger rectangle cartons? TIA!

      Hi Sarah, the coconut milk is the kind you get in a can. You want that thickness. We buy the low-fat version otherwise it’s kind of a calorie bomb.
