MAMA'S CHICKEN CURRY

Steps:

• Cut the chicken into portions, as desired. Marinade with salt and a whole lemon. Set aside for about 1/2 hour.
• Put about 10 tbsp of Oil into a deep pot and allow it to heat. Add the fenugreek, curry leaves, the garlic, ginger and cardamom mixture, green chilie, rampa and onion. Stir for about 3 minutes, then add the tomatoes.
• When the ingredients are a golden brown colour, start adding the spices, starting with: Chilie powder then followed by Masala, Turmeric and Curry powder. Stir well.
• When the mixture is almost a shade of dark red, put the chicken in, including the marinade.
• Raise the fire to let the curry boil. Add about 1/4 cup of water if necessary (or if you want more curry). Lower the heat and cook for about 20 minutes or until chicken is tender.

MAMA ROY'S DAUGHTER'S CHICKEN CURRY

Steps:

• 1) Peel and cut up onions into 6-8 pieces each (something that will fit into a food processor or a blender). Peel garlic and ginger.
• 2)Put onions, garlic, and ginger into food processor or blender with a spoon of water. Blend/grate into a rough paste. Does not need to be super smooth.
• 3) Prep the chicken - take skins off if you bought chicken with the skin on. Rinse the chicken with water and pat dry. Create slits in the pieces randomly with a knife so that the spices can get into the meat.
• 4) Take about 4 spoons of the onion, garlic, ginger paste and the spices (Indian chili powder, turmeric, cumin) and coat the chicken with it all. Add the salt as well. NOTE RE SPICES: we never measure these spices, but ratios help. For this part of the recipe, smaller amounts of each chili powder, cumin, and turmeric are fine - let's say one spoon of each, more of the chili powder if you want it spicy.
• 5) Place a 6-8 quart pot on medium-high heat. Add a turn or two of canola oil, enough to evenly coat the bottom of the pot. When the oil is heated through, add cloves, cardamom (try to open them up a bit), and cinnamon bark. Stir the whole spices around a little until fragrant.
• 6) Once you start smelling the whole spices, add the rest of your onion/garlic/ginger paste. Cook until the paste starts to take on a slightly reddish color. Add larger amounts of the spices now. I will do two generous shakes of the chili powder (I like my curries spicy), one shake of ground cumin, and one shake of turmeric. If it looks too brown, I will add some turmeric and chili powder because I want it to be a little brighter.
• 7) Add the chicken after the paste and spices incorporate. Stir frequently so the chicken does not stick to the pot. Once all the chicken turns opaque on the outside, cover with a lid, lower the heat to medium and let everything cook together for about 20 minutes.
• 8) After 20 minutes, check the pot to see if any liquid has come out. This is the curry! If it looks dry, add some a couple cups of hot water to the pot, but only if it looks totally dry. Stir the chicken and recover the pot, lower the heat a little more, and let it all simmer/stew together for another 20 minutes.
• 9) 15 minutes into the second 20 minutes, add the Thai chilies. Make sure they are washed. If you want more of the heat to come out of the chilies, make one diagonal slit in each chili. Adding the chilies is optional.
• 10) At the end of the 20 minutes, check your pot. There should be ample curry. Give it all a final stir and check the chicken to make sure it is all cooked through. It should be by now, but you can never be too careful! Have some cooked rice handy and serve with some saag bhaji (another recipe!). This recipe is easy to scale up or down and if you have leftovers, you can eat this up to 4 days after you make it, at least.

HOMESTYLE CHICKEN CURRY

Steps:

• Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and brown 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
• Reduce the heat to medium high and add the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to the pot along with the cardamom pods, cinnamon stick and clove. Cook, stirring, until the whole spices are toasted, about 20 seconds.
• Add the onions, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until soft and browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes. Add the coriander, cumin, chili powder and turmeric; cook, stirring and scraping the pan, until the ground spices are toasted, about 30 seconds.
• Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring, until they break down, 4 to 5 minutes. Return the chicken and any juices to the pot. Stir in 1 1/4 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover and simmer until the chicken is almost cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly, about 12 minutes.
• Tuck the potatoes among the chicken pieces, submerging them as much as possible; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cover and simmer until the chicken is tender and the potatoes are just cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes. Uncover and simmer, turning the potatoes, until the curry is thickened, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Thin the curry with water, if necessary; season with salt. Serve with rice and top with cilantro.
