Ingredients​

• 1 tbsp vegetable oil

• 600g chicken thighs, trimmed and diced

• 1 cinnamon stick
• 400ml coconut milk
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• Fresh coriander or parsley, to serve

Method​

1. Heat oil in a large saucepan and cook onion and garlic for 3 minutes until onion is starting to soften.
2. Add curry paste, turmeric and curry powder and cook, stirring, for 1 minute to release flavours. Add chicken and stir until well sealed.
3. Add potatoes, cinnamon stick, curry leaves, coconut milk and sugar. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 25 minutes. Serve with coriander leaves.

NOTES​

Enjoy this curry on its own or as part of a larger banquet with vegetable dishes and rice.
You can find a generic Malaysian curry paste at the supermarket, but rendang and laksa pastes would also be delicious.
