Old Chicken Curry Recipe (Authentic) image

This is a chicken curry which is very very asian. It is a little similar to the sambal chicken recipe i have posted, but I find this one better. Don't let the work fool ya, it's actually really simple. Preferably leave this curry over night before eating, it allows the spices to really get into the chicken pieces, if you are in a rush, try and cook this dish a few hours before serving. Of course heat before serving. This dish has to be eaten HOT.
