Friday - 31 Oct 2008
Curry Chicken - Most people will adore this dish. Nowaday with more and more ready to use paste and premix coming up, to cook curry becomes a rather easy task. The Curry that I had for today's dinner was not made from premix. My Aunt make her own rempah & use her favourite brand of Nonya curry powder to cook it. Her curry chicken definitely taste better than those uses ready paste.

30g Nonya curry powder (Add water to form into paste)
2 Lemon grass (crushed)
4 seeds Cardamen
1/2 tsp Nutmeg powder
250ml Fresh coconut milk
800ml Water (300ml Stock & 500ml Water - the taste will be richer if you use stock)

Seasoning:
Salt 1 tsp
Chicken powder or vetsin 1 tsp
Sugar 1/2 tsp
