Curry Chicken Success 1

I’m easily amused. You know that by now.

In a quest for great homemade curry recipes without too much difficulty, I’ve tried a few. Yesterday, I found the best mix.

The key was the curry – Kitchens of India is imported from, er, India. It is a curry paste and comes in a sealed foil package. A 6 pack runs $12 from amazon – ouch. It is worth it.

Follow the last curry chicken crock pot recipe I posted here, just use the Kitchens of India curry instead. Here’s the result


Yum.

Coconut Curry Chicken - a Winner

Posted by JD 10/03/2009 at 13:02

About a month ago, I tried my first curry chicken in a crock pot. Eh. However, by changing the chicken broth for coconut milk, the whole flavor changed. It is good, really good, especially for the effort involved.

  • 3-5 lbs of chicken
  • 1 can of coconut milk
  • 2 cans of chickpeas
  • 1 med onion (sliced)
  • Golden Curry paste (3 chunks, crushed)

Throw everything into the crock pot, heat on high for 4 hours, service over rice. The coconut milk and curry turn into a wonderful sauce. A little pepper and/or chili may be good to spice up the flavor some. Hum, perhaps next time.

Blog and RSS

I’m curious about my blog readers.

  1. How often do you read an article here? Daily? Weekly? Monthly?
  2. Do you use an RSS reader to read this blog? I do, BTW.
  3. I’m planning a migration to a new blog system. Any feature or content requests? More virtualbox or more cooking?

Please either leave a comment or drop me an email.

Curry Chicken in the Crock Pot

I love curry dishes. It wasn’t always the case, but then I found a restaurant that did an excellent red curry chicken and got hooked. I’ve had curry perhaps 3 times that last 2 years – not nearly enough to get my fix as it were.
