Curry recipe

rylie

Don't know bout anyone else but Saturday nights in the our house have changed since baby rylie came along. Gone are the nights out and in their place is X Factor/Curry night. Love this curry recipe so I thought I'd share...

It seems a bit fiddly and long winded but I promise it's well worth the effort.

2 or 3 onions chopped
2 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp coriander seeds
2 tsp medium curry powder
6 cloves garlic chopped
3 red chilli, deseeded and chopped
1 red pepper chopped
4 chicken breasts chopped
1 tin tomatoes
1 tin coconut milk
1 tsp mint sauce
1 tsp garam masala
loads of fresh coriander.

Toast the seeds in a frying pan, grind them in pestle & mortar
Fry the onion and garlic until soft, add the ground spices (if this gets a bit dry you can add a spoon of juice from the tin of tomatoes)
Add the curry powder and the chopped chicken and fry for 5 mins
Add the chillis and red pepper and cook for another 3 or 4 mins
Add the tin of tomatoes, coconut milk, mint sauce and let it bubble away for 35-40 mins (the longer the better really)
Add the garam masala about 5 mins before the end of cooking time.
Just before serving add the fresh coriander.
This is gorgeous with brown rice.
Enjoy
