Directions
Country Captain ( East India Chicken Curry),The original recipes comes from an old edition of Joy of Cooking. Over the years I’ve modified the recipe using only white meat and updating the cooking method. Serve over steamed white or brown rice. This is a recipe that can easily be adjusted to serve two! UPDATE 8/30/07: I’ve made some further adjustments to this recipe to give it more depth and ‘kick it up a notch’. If using the Hot Madras Curry Powder suggest that you taste test after addition of the first teaspoon.,I have to review this, as I have been making it for about 20 years now. I had made very similar changes to the recipe from my father’s 1975 copy of Joy of Cooking. I will have to try the Garma Masalas you mention, I have not tried any Indian spice blends or recipes. I made a large batch yesterday, and with the family having it for dinner today. I am using equal amounts of canned diced tomatoes and the version with the zesty green chilies. I look forward to your new spice idea for the next batch. I appreciate you posting your recipe.
