Very Spicy & Creamy Chicken Curry
Ingredients for 4 people:
4 chicken breasts
250 ml 18% cream or 150 ml coconut milk + 100 ml cream or 200 ml coconut cream + 50 ml cream ( my favourite version )
1 – 2 tbsp. curry powder or 2 – 3 tbsp. red Thai curry paste
1 tbsp. curcuma ( turmeric )
1 onion
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped or grated
1 chilli or 1/2 tsp. chilli powder
½ -1 tsp. cayenne pepper
3cm fresh ginger, finely chopped/grated (or 1 tsp. powdered ginger )
1/2 tsp. sugar, preferably brown
2 tsp. zest of lemon or lime
1 tbsp. lemon, lime or orange juice
oil
salt and pepper
Method:
Cut the chicken breasts into small pieces and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
In a bowl, mix the chopped garlic, chopped chilli ( or 1/2 tsp. chilli powder ), chopped/grated ginger, juice and zest of a lemon and one tbsp. oil. Add the chicken, mix and let it sit for at least 5 minutes.
In a large skillet heat 1 – 2 tbsp. oil and gently cook chopped onion ( about 1 – 2 minutes ). Do not allow it to brown.
Add marinated chicken with the remains of the marinade and fry until golden brown, stirring occasionally.
Then reduce the heat and add the sugar, curry paste (or curry powder) and curcuma. Mix it well and cook for about 1 minute.
Finally, add the cream and coconut milk (or coconut cream). Cook for another 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently. Season to taste with cayenne pepper and salt.
Serve hot curry with rice, naan bread or roasted potatoes.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, stir a spoonful of cornstarch with a little of cold water, add at the end of cooking.
