I love Indian food but because so many ingredients are used it's just easier to go out and get it somewhere.
But I felt like trying to make one today.
I looked up a recipe online that looked decent and went to the shop with Bianca to go and get all the stuff.
It turned out that ingredient wise this recipe was probably the most complex I ever made but it was one of the easiest to prepare.
If you are wondering why I'm pointing to an empty pan...well...that's because for the first time ever I forget to take a picture of me with the food.
And by the time I realized it everything was gone!
It was yummy.
Now I understand that this probably is not the most authentic curry in the world so if any of you guys have any improvements, I'll gladly hear it.
Let's cook.
I don't think I ever used so many prep dishes. Ingredients: Crushed garlic, onion, curry powder, cinnamon powder, paprika powder, bay leaf, grated fresh ginger, sugar, chicken breasts, tomato paste, yogurt, coconut milk, cayenne pepper.
Get a skillet or a large pot and put in some oil and fry onions until lightly brown.
Next step is to dump in all the ingredients on the right, quickly one by one! And stir! for 2 minutes. (garlic, curry powder, cinnamon, paprika, bay leaf, ginger, sugar)
The kitchen filled up with an amazing smell of all the spices! After 2 minutes of stirring it looked like this.
Next step is to add the rest of the ingredients, minus the cayenne pepper. (chicken, tomato paste, yogurt, and coconut milk)
I stirred everything together and then it looked like this. It had to simmer for 25 minutes.
25 minutes gave me plenty of time to clean the massive amount of prep dishes that I used and I also cooked some rice. 25 minutes later I added the cayenne pepper to the dish and let it simmer some more for 5 minutes.
End result. I was so happy with the way I served the rice, but Bianca called it tacky :). Anyway, it tasted great! A lot of flavors and some good heat. For a first try, there was nothing wrong with this! But I have to be honest when I go out to get it, it's better...the flavors are way deeper and more complex when the pro's make it. Still, it was fun to try something new tonight!
