So, after all my bitchin to get this place open, i'm gonna post my take on chicken curry.

 

Cut up the chicken into cubes and season with Salt/Pepper to taste, and leave in fridge for 2 hrs before you start to cook

 

Prepare the vegetables

 

Chop

3 onions

225g of Mushrooms

3 peppers (red, green and yellow)

Grate 1inch of fresh root ginger

4 cloves garlic (crushed or sliced)

Fresh chillies (4 for medium to hot)

 

To cook, firstly in a large pot, melt on medium heat ¼ pound of butter (kerry gold), when melted add one at a time in the following sequence and stir in

 

Chopped Onions

Mushrooms

Peppers

Garlic

Ginger

Chillies

 

Leave to cook for a minute or two, then add 3 tins of chopped tomatoes, and bring back to simmer.

 

Now add individually and stir in

2 teaspoons of Madras Curry Powder

Chillie Powder to taste if fresh chillies not available

Ground Cumin as per jar

Ground Coriander as per jar

Ground Ginger (if fresh not available)

Tumeric as per jar

Optional pinch of paprika & cayenne pepper

2/3 teaspoons of mango chutney (sharwoods Bengal spice if available)

 

Cook for 5 mins, stirring continuously

 

Then add the chicken, stir in, cook on strong simmer for at least 30 mins, stirring regularly. Then reduce to low simmer.

 

5 minutes before servings add Garam Masala as per jar, and fresh coriander leaves.

 

Ideally cooked the day before needed, then reheat slowly.

 

Serve with Boiled Rice, Side Garnish of freshly sliced onion, cucumber, and tomato, Sprinkle fresh coriander over top

Optional, Naan Breads, or Pitta Breads.

 

Enjoy, cos thats what i had for dinner today!

Everything sounds good except for the tomatoes.

 

I love tomatoes, usually, but I find they get in the way of the flavor of curry.

I agree, but in this recipe you can't really taste em.

I use the chopped tomatoes, in cartons, they're great, and not too watery.

 

Also meant to mention, this recipe is good with Beef or Lamb, or if your veggie, just leave the meat out altogether.

Well, that brings up an obvious question... if you can't really taste em, why put em in?

 

To give the sauce a thicker consistency.

Of course i wouldn't mind, but then it'd a bastard variant of Wayne's Curry!

 

The tomatos are in their to form the basis of the curry sauce itself,

Obviously you can taste em, but they aren't the dominant flavour.

im not the biggest on onions unless they are fine, and peppers n mushrooms tend to overpower the meals I eat with them in it... but that curry sounds tasty as hell.

 

I tried pumpkin chicken curry at a shady chinese place once, and it was gasp ...good

I wonder safe it would be to have SoF make and some how preserve curry to ship it to us?! Then we could try the super cool curry, hehe!

 

Cj's curry is indeed a delicious marvel for the stomach. And let me tell you - this batch wasn't even apples compared to the past couple of batches!! Srsly.
