Sour Chicken Curry
July 23rd 2010 05:04
I have the recipe of this with duck, but I just can't get my head around such fatty poultry.
So I thought I'd give it a go with chicken and it was delicious.
My new flavour of the month is tamarind.
I've never used it before and it's sourness just adds such an interesting and tasty dimension to the dish.
I served it up with cooked pasta and veges. When pasta was cooked I mixed in with the curry.
Ingredients
2T tamarind paste
whole chicken or chicken pieces
1.5C water
1T ground coriander
1t ground ginger
1/2 t ground turmeric
1/2 t ground cardamom
1/4 t paprika
1 chicken stock cube
2T plain flour
2T water, extra
1T chopped fresh coriander
Method
1.If you've bought a whole chicken cut into pieces. Combine chicken, water, ground coriander, ginger, turmeric, cardamom and paprika in medium saucepan, bring to boil, reduce heat, simmer, uncovered for 5 minutes.
2. Stir in tamarind paste and stock cube, bring to boil, reduce heat, simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked.
3. Blend flour with extra water, stir into duck mixture, stir over high heat until sauce boils and thickens. Stir in fresh coriander just before serving.
Serves 4.
