CHICKEN CURRY
1) Peel and chop 2 large Spanish onions. Fry � of these in a little vegetable oil until translucent � don�t let them turn brown. Don�t use green olive oil. Put the rest of the onion to one side.
2) Add the cubed chicken � I use boned and skinned breast and allow one breast per person. Fry the meat until all the surface rawness has gone, turning frequently.
3) When the meat has browned, add the curry paste of your choice depending on how hot you like it. I use Vindaloo paste. Make sure it is Pataks paste and not a cook-in sauce. This amount of meat will need about 2 tablespoons. It is important to stir the paste in and get the heat up so that you are almost frying the meat in the paste. Keep this up for 5 minutes.
4) Add a large can of chopped tomatoes and stir in, bringing the lot back to the boil. Add a little salt and just a sprinkling of malt vinegar. Cover and gently simmer for at least 30 minutes stirring frequently � the meat needs to be cooked until really tender.
5) At this point you can turn it off and reheat it when you are ready to eat. Leaving it to stand will improve the flavour. When you come to reheat add the remaining chopped onion � this will add texture to the curry. You can also add a little water if it looks too dry. Add some washed and chopped coriander 5 minutes before serving. I like to add a decent sized bunch.
6) Serve with basmati rice. This recipe also works with goat.
