Asian Curry Chicken (Authentic)
"A summer weekend saw my sister in law surprise me with this awesome tasting Chicken Curry, a recipe shared by one of the nurses a co worker at the hospital. It’s an absolute winner! Have to love the sharing of authentic recipes! I love fenugreek seeds but had no idea one could buy dried fenugreek leaves. I found mine at Superstore. Original recipe calls for fresh tomatoes or canned. I usually go with 2 cans diced tomatoes adding a can of plum tomatoes cut in chunks, I love the extra sauce! Can be made with chicken, beef or tofu. Another plus is it’s freezer friendly for those unexpected meals, pot of rice in the rice cooker and you’re done."
