Express Chicken Curry

by Kwoklyn Wan

Enjoy the exotic flavours of succulent chicken marinated in ginger, garlic and curry powder, simmered to perfection in a savoury coconut cream sauce. Ready in minutes!

Method

Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces, place in a bowl and add the ginger, garlic, fish sauce and curry powder. Mix well and set to one side.

Step 2

Place a wok over a medium heat, add the oil and gently soften the onion until tender and translucent. Add the chicken, increase the heat to medium-high and brown the chicken all over.

Step 3

Once the chicken is partially cooked and browned, add 500ml (2 cups) of water (if cooking for 2) and the curry leaves and give everything a really good mix. You can add the green beans at this point if you wish, or cook them separately. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Finally, add the coconut cream, stir and continue to cook until slightly thickened. Check for seasoning and adjust with salt to your preference.
