How To Make happy family chicken curry
-
Step 1Heat oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add chicken, brown meat.
-
Step 2To chicken pieces, add cumin, curry powder, cayenne. Stir in raisins.
-
Step 3Add onion, garlic until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
-
Step 4Add potatoes peppers, apples, tomatoes, ¼ cup chopped cilantro and stir fry but do not cook thru. About 2-3 mins.
-
Step 5Add sugar, coconut milk and 1 1/2 cups water or chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
-
Step 6Stir in yogurt and heat through. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve over rice. Jasmine or basmati rice is also good with this, but any rice will do. I also serve with Naan Indian bread. It's like a fluffier pita.
