CURRY CHICKEN

Curry Chicken are my sons favorite dish.They started eating curry when they were still very small aged 4-6.They were reluctant to try at first but after telling them that my curry are not so spicy,they started trying it and they liked it ever since.In fact,they liked it so much that I cooked curry chicken very often back then(with santan added)
Today,curry chicken still rank first among their favorite dishes.This one below is without the santan (coconut milk).As they get older ,they want it more hot and spicy.

Curry,when no coconut mik added are orange in colour,but yellow when coconut milk are added.

Ingredients:

1.2 kg chicken(half chicken size)
4 large potatoes
2 stalks lemon grass(serai)
5 onions(diced small)
5  piece garlics(diced small)
1 large onions(sliced thin)
100g curry powder plus 4 tbsp water to make it into a paste
2 cups water
4-5 tbsps oil

Method;

Wash the chicken first,then cut into small pieces. Peel the potato skin,cut into 4 cubes.Pound the onions,garlic and shallots together.Cut the big onions into rings.Heat up some oil in wok for deep frying the potatoes.Take it out when it has already turned soft and brown..Put aside.Use about 4 tbsp of oil to fry the pounded ingredients till brown and aroma.Put the curry paste in.Add some water in if it is too dry.Quickly put in the chicken,add the water and cover to simmer for 15 minutes under low fire till the chicken are cooked.Stir every 5 minutes.Put in the fried potatoes and continue to simmer for another 5 minutes.Make sure the chicken are thoroughly cooked and tender before taking it out to serve.
This one can serve 6-7 people.
