Thai Masaman Chicken ( Gaeng Masaman Gai ), Compliments of the website importfood com which states: The massaman indicates that the recipe is of a musselman or Islamic origin It probably owes something to early Portuguese influences, and is similar in concept to the sour and hot Goan-style vindaloo dishes By Thai standards this is usually a fairly mild curry Begin planning your menu and preparing the ingredients the day before , My DS asked me to make this for him, it’s one of his favourite meals and he is a bit of a connoisseur when it comes to Thai food
All I can say is he LOVED this! He tasted it and before he sat down to dinner, he got out a container to put any leftover’s in for his lunch, so as no-one else could grab them!
We all really enjoyed this for dinner tonight, served with Jasmine rice and the ajad on the side and the ajad was fantastic, its a must to serve with this recipe
Thanks Cookgirl, this is one for the family cookbook!
