Ingredients

  • 500 grams Chicken (wing, breast)
  • 1 tbsp Curry powder (for the meat rub)
  • 1 tbsp Flour
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 2 Onion
  • 1 piece Finely chopped ginger
  • 2 tbsp Curry powder (for curry base)
  • 1 Bay leaf
  • 1 Chicken consomme
  • 400 grams Whole tomatoes
  • 1 large Potato
  • 1/2 Apple or Carrot
  • 1 Onions
  • 2 clove Garlic
  • 1 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Japanese Worcestershire-style sauce
  • 1 Cumin, chili powder, garam masala (if available)
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 3 tbsp Yogurt

Method

  • Mix the ingredients together in a plastic bag, and rub the mixture into the chicken wings.
  • Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • You can use chicken breast in place of the wings when you are short on time.
  • Place ingredients marked in a blender with 300 ml water.
  • Blend until thickened.
  • Add the canned tomato juice first, and cut up the vegetables beforehand to speed this step up.
  • It is easier if you use onions that has been baked in an oven (cover in foil, sprinkle with some oil, and bake for 35 minutes at 200C).
  • Add 1 tablespoon cooking oil to a pot, and saute the chicken until golden brown.
  • Take out the chicken momentarily, and wipe the pot with a paper towel.
  • Add 1 tablespoon cooking oil, 1 tablespoon cumin seeds, and ginger (or red pepper) and saute until fragrant.
  • Then add in the onions and thoroughly saute until they become golden brown.
  • Add in 2 tablespoons of curry powder and saute so that it doesn't burn or stick to the sides of the pot.
  • The red pepper burns easily, so take it out once before sauteing the onions.
  • Return the chicken to the pot, add in the ingredients you mixed in the blender, bouillon, and bay leaf.
  • Add the yogurt as well.
  • Return the red pepper to the pot at this point (if you are using it).
  • You can make this spicy by using red chili pepper powder or garam masala, when not using red peppers.
  • Cook over a low heat for 30 minutes-1 hour; if the amount of water becomes too little, add more as you simmer.
  • Add soy sauce, Japanese Worcester sauce, 1/2 tablespoon cumin powder (if you have it), and 1 tablespoon chili powder, and simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste, add the butter, turn off the heat, and it is done!
  • By using a blender on the ingredients marked with , you get a really smooth finish.
