Notes

  • Use chicken with bones as it creates more taste in curry. 
  • Always cook chicken on high heat to make it more juicy, soft, and tender.
  • Prefer to use fresh coconut milk and if you don't have then add canned milk. 
  • If you like to add vegetables then add potato and carrots cubes in the same recipe. 
  • You can make variations in spice as per your taste buds.
