Dutch Oven Thai Curry Noodles

Dutch oven cooking is easy, but a lot of people worry too much about technique, coal counting and overhead costs. Not only can it be easy, it can also be cheap. I love Dutch oven cooking so much, I fire up the charcoal and cook in my ovens every weekend. You can read about my adventures on by blog, the Back Porch Gourmet. Getting started is easy, and this instructable will teach you how to make my favorite food-- Curry!

Step 1: You Will Need

To do Dutch oven cooking in general, you will need a few tools. I recommend the following list for beginners:

12" Seasoned Cast Iron Dutch Oven (read my squidoo lens on seasoning cast iron)
Long Handled metal tongs (for moving charcoal)
Shovel
Trivet/Lid stand
Lid Lifter (Claw hammer works really well)
Heat Resistant gloves
Apron
Something to put the oven on- When I started I used tinfoil, then a $1 pizza pan. I now use the Volcano cooker.
Flat edged wooden spoon with the longest handle you can find.

Charcoal
Lighter fluid
Matches

Some nice extras:
Charcoal chimney
Waist height table
Propane burner stove
Dinner triangle
