Quick and Tasty Chicken Curry Recipe 2

This is another one of those fantastic easy go to recipes for mid week tea for two reasons. 1. It tastes so good and is a great fix mid week. 2. I generally always have the ingredients in.

I first found out about this quick and tasty chicken curry recipe from a work mate who kindly let me taste her lunch (I was very jealous it wasn’t mine) and since I wrote it down I must make it at least every other week.

Another great thing about this recipe is it can be altered in so many ways to suit all people or to use up various ingredients. A couple of weeks ago I used cashew nut butter instead of peanut and I also threw in lots of cashews that needed using up. Also instead of using chicken I just added another pepper to the ingredients as well as the nuts. Part boiled cauliflower is also great for vegetarian curries! The curry paste I tend to use is Tikka Masala, however Rogan Josh works well too. If you use a different paste then let me know the results by adding a comment at the bottom of the page.I hope this recipe works well as a mid week  treat enjoyed with a nice cold beer 🙂
