CHICKEN CURRY
This is an easy to follow, step-by-step recipe to cook a delicious Durban Chicken Curry, using our amazing all-in-one Masala.
Ingredients
● 1/2 Cup Sunflower Oil 120ml

● 1 tbsp Fresh Ginger and Garlic (15ml)
● 4 tbsp Durban Curry Lovers – All in One Masala (32g)

Method

start to turn golden - Add curry leaves and (optional) fresh green chillies
(split) - Add fresh Ginger and Garlic paste and saute until
softened - Reduce heat and add Durban Curry Lovers, All in One
Masala, stir for at least 20 seconds. Take care not to
burn the masala - Add your favourite meat or protein and mix well.
- Allow the Meat and spices to fry for a few minutes on
a low heat, stirring occasionally without burning.
Gradually increase heat and braise until the meat has
some colour and you can see the red oil start to
separate. - Add the tomatoes and braise on a medium heat ,
stirring occasionally until the tomatoes have broken
down and incorporated into the gravy, and again you
see the red oil start to separate from the gravy. - Add Salt to taste.
- Continue to braise on a medium heat until the meat
has softened. - Add the Potatoes and water as desired or as
necessary to cook the potatoes until soft.
Garnish with fresh dhania / coriander
Enjoy.
PLEASE NOTE: Step 3 + 4 may be swapped around depending
on your preference. If you are cooking with very little oil, I
suggest that you add the tomatoes first.
