Directions
Chicken Curry With Cashews,The smell of this simmering on the stove is insane.,I was so disappointed after all the positive reviews. I thought this was really boring. Kind of tasted like what I’d expect from something in the frozen food department.,I was pretty free wheeling with this recipe – I doubled the curry powder (used Madras curry) guesstimated on the other spices, was out of fresh ginger so used the jar stuff and totally skipped the cilantro, as I was out of that too. Also, I didn’t want to waste any coconut milk, so I just poured the whole can in (glad I did too.) I thought it could have even used a bit more curry powder, but it was fine with the amount used. (It was pretty thick, so I added a tiny bit of water to get my desired consistency) I cut up the chicken breasts into bite size pieces and just placed them on top of the simmering sauce to cook with a lid on. They were done in no time, and were perfect – not dry and overcooked like they usually are. While hubby didn’t have seconds (he usually doesn’t with curry) I really had to restrain myself from them. I’ll have seconds for lunch tomorrow and enjoy it just as much I’m sure. I really enjoyed this and will be making it again when I have fresh ginger and cilantro on hand. I’ll triple the curry powder and stick with the whole can of coconut milk next time.
