FRIED
CURRIED CHICKEN
Once again,
this is yet another unique curry dish, but one which is simple to
make.
Serve with
glasses of light beer (lager) or with a jug of chilled water with a few
lemon slices floating in it. This dish should not turn out to taste
very
hot.
This recipe
will make enough for 8 good sized portions. Divide everything by 2 for
a standard meal.
Ingredients:
2 kg chicken
meat
200 g onions
200 g tomatoes
75 ml vegetable
oil
4 cloves garlic
25 g ginger
50 g garam
masala
25 g coriander
salt to taste
Method:
1. Cut the
chicken meat into small pieces.
2. Cut the
tomatoes into a concasse. See Tomato
Concasse
3. Wash, then
finely chop the coriander (or cheat and use dried and powdered
coriander).
4. Peel the
tomatoes and bring them up with the garlic and ginger to make a paste.
5. Sprinkle
the garam masala over the chicken and then put it into a frying pan of
hot oil.
6. Fry the
chicken pieces until they are golden brown, then take them out and put
to one side. Reheat the oil until it is hot.
7. Add the
onion, garlic and ginger paste to the oil and fry for about 5 minutes.
Add the tomatoes and salt. Continue to fry the mixture for another 4
minutes.
8. Now place
the cooked chicken meat in the pan with the mixture and cook over a low
heat until the meat is really tender and most of the liquid has boiled
away. Take care the mixture does not burn.
9. Put the
chicken into a heated serving dish and garnish with a little chopped
coriander.
This is nice
served on a bed of rice - or with a salad - with bowls of chopped
onion,
tomato, chutney, cucumber etc. on the table.
