I get to make what we call stinky chicken!!!! Well thats what the neighbors say.
I bung everything in a frying pan, very technical.
You can make this as hot as you want it to be.
Just take an onion, Garlic to taste I use 3/4 cloves, Chillies red green, Ginger, Coriander fresh if possible cheap at the Asian stores. If I have it Garam Masala spice and Schwartz Bombay spice. Chicken breasts 2 or 3 depending on how many you are feeding.
I put oil in pan fry onions garlic etc cut the chicken up into chunks, once it all looks cooked I then use a chicken stock cube and some water to make sauce. It only takes 20 mins or so. Serve with rice or use the same mix to make bombay spuds.
As I say you can leave out anything you don't like use more if you want it hotter.

Have you tried making naan bread using your breadmaker. Use any old naan bread recipe, but do the dough part up to the rolling out in your breadmaker. Tastes fantastic.
I would also recommend M&S curry book. found it in a second hand store for £2.00.
To liven up a tomato curry try adding some spinach.
Do an internet search for your favourite take away curries print them off and make your own recipe book.

HI all
Just joined this thread as I want to make a curry this week, want to make a large one so can freeze some.
The only problem is I have never made one before and my other problem is I can't eat hot curries, or even mild ones, they have to be very very very mild.
Can some one help me with what I need please, and how to make it very mild.
I plan to do chicken curry.
Thank you Caz

Using curry powder can be another easy method.
Here's rough outline curry:
-fry onions
-add meat and curry powder, fry that
-add tinned tomatoes and water, peppers + any other vegetable matter
-simmer for an hour or two until enough water has steamed off

If you don't like a curry to be too spicy, you can add plain yoghurt towards the end. Coconut milk (or even the solid blocks) are good too.

You can buy a huge bag of chapatti flour for a few pounds. they're easy to make and go well with curries.

Curry Queens recipe is basically just copied form a book called "The curry secret" , its only about £6 and well worth getting if you enjoy take away style indians.

Hi all,

This recipe is lovely & spiciness can be adjusted by using mild/hot curry powder & adding chilli powder. I call it Nan's chicken curry because it's my nan's recipe & it's perfect for rubber chicken too!!!

2 Onions
25g flour

Chilli Powder to Taste

Melt butter & fry onions until soft

Add flour, curry powder, ginger, cinnamon & chilli powder & cook gently for a few seconds

Add milk & Stock

Stir in chutney & bring to the boil

Simmer gently for approximately 20 minutes

Add chicken to sauce & warm through


Note: If using raw chicken add to pan before spices
