Chicken and Potato Curry With Rice


I savor curry quite often at my parents' place. Hence, you can't really see I post up curry recipe here as I usually do not hands on to cook my own. Things has changed. One Sunday, I had suddenly thought of cooking a hurried meal so that I could utilize my time to do some house chores. The dish that came across my mind was the chicken and potato curry.

I made a curry without coconut milk. With just the spices, the curry smell is really incredible. Spice has its magical power! We had a satisfying meal on that afternoon. :)
I swear I will have to discover more curry recipe in future.


Chicken and Potato Curry

Ingredients:

1/2 of skinless chicken breast, deboned and cut into cubes
3 potatoes, peeled cut into cubes
1/2 onion, peeled and sliced
cooking oil
200ml water

Seasoning:

fresh chili paste for chicken curry ( I bought it from wet market at 1 dollar)
1 tsp of turmeric powder
1 tbsp of meat curry powder
1 tsp of brown sugar
light soy sauce to taste

Method:

1. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook the potato till 80% soft. Drain and set aside.

2. Heat some oil in a wok. Stir-fry the onion. Add all the seasoning except light soy sauce. Stir fry till the oil separated from the chili paste.

3. Add in chicken cubes. Saute for 4-5 minute. Pour in the potato to mix well. Add water and close the lid for simmering.

4. When sauce is thickening, add light sauce to taste.

5. Serve hot with rice.

  3. Yep. Spices do wonders without coconut milk. I think a lot of Indian curries are without coconut milk too and their curries are as delicious.
