CHICKEN CURRY WITH SWEET POTATOES AND COCONUT MILK



Chicken Curry With Sweet Potatoes and Coconut Milk image

I used to think the only reason to buy a whole chicken was to actually cook it whole. Why buy one for a recipe calling for parts when the supermarket will cut up the bird for you? Then one day my mother set me straight. It's one thing to buy a package of thighs or drumsticks when you need a specific part, but you might as well cut up your own bird if you need a variety. You can use your cut-up chicken to make this ginger-and-lime-scented curry with coconut milk, sweet potatoes and chiles. Or substitute your favorite part, be it wings or legs or bone-in breasts. The bright, spicy and gently sweet flavors work well with any pieces of fowl in the pot. When the chicken in this recipe is nearly done braising, you can fry up the liver, then coat it in some of the luscious sauce. If your mother is anything like mine, she'd be proud.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (3 1/2 pound) whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, more as needed
Black pepper, as needed
2 tablespoons peanut, safflower or vegetable oil
1/4 cup finely chopped scallion
1 1/2 inches fresh ginger, peeled and grated (1 1/2 tablespoons)
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 to 2 jalapeno or Serrano chiles, to taste, seeded and finely chopped
2 tablespoons red curry paste
1 (15 1/2-ounce) can coconut milk
2 medium sweet potatoes (1 pound), peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
3/4 cup coconut flakes
1 tablespoon black or brown mustard seeds
Fresh cilantro leaves
Lime wedges

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add oil. Brown chicken pieces, in batches if necessary, until golden all over, 6 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer chicken to a plate.
  • Stir scallion, ginger, garlic and chiles into pot and reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring, until soft, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in curry paste and cook 1 minute. Stir in coconut milk and sweet potatoes. Arrange chicken pieces on top of potatoes, placing breast meat on top. Pour in enough water to come halfway up the sides of chicken. Bring to a boil. Cover pot and transfer to oven. Bake until chicken is cooked through, about 40 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large dry skillet over medium heat, toast coconut flakes until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Add mustard seeds and toast until they begin to pop, 1 minute more. Transfer to a bowl and season with a pinch of salt.
  • Transfer chicken and sweet potatoes to a platter. Return Dutch oven to the stove and simmer over medium-high heat until cooking liquid has thickened to a saucelike consistency, 5 to 10 minutes. Pour over chicken and potatoes. Sprinkle with the coconut and mustard seed mixture and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing.

SWEET CHICKEN CURRY



Sweet Chicken Curry image

This is an adaptation of my mother's curry recipe. It produces a delightfully mild (depending on your curry mix) and sweet stew. This mixture makes enough mild, sweet curry to feed six unashamedfly hungry people, and freezes well.To lose the syrupy/sweet aspect, use plain coconut cream instead of the colada mix. If you can't find coconut milk, use some plain yogurt and brown sugar or honey instead.

Time 35m

Yield 48 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons olive oil
3 -4 medium onions, quartered
2 -3 cloves garlic, sliced
3 -7 tablespoons curry powder
to taste hot chili pepper (optional)
1/2 cup chicken stock
2 -4 tablespoons bisto or 2 -4 tablespoons other thickener
1 can coconut cream pina colada mix
1 can low-fat coconut milk
5 -6 lbs vegetables or 5 -6 lbs potatoes, cubed

Steps:

  • In a pot, brown the meat, onions and garlic in oil (Chicken should be skinned). Generously sprinkle curry powder on meat (commercial preparations are fine on their own or cut with some homemade).
  • Mix your stock and thickener in a cup.
  • Add stock mixture, coconut milk and cream to the chicken.
  • If you don't want to break the bank over one meal, forage in your refrigerator for any questionable vegetables you want to use up and start dicing potatoes and throw them in now.
  • Season to taste. Simmer for at least 10 minutes- thickening your sauce to desired consistency, though feel free to torment your family and/or guests by cooking this for a few hours.
  • Serve with rice, thick pita bread, salad and your fave condiments.
  • Suggested condiments include corn kernels, peanuts (or other nuts), raisins, chopped hard-boiled eggs, sliced banana in lemon or lime juice, sliced cucumber in yoghurt (or in a cream dressing- we like garlic), dried coconut, raisins and other dried fruits, and chutney.
