Chicken Curry

Ingredients

• 500g chicken, cut into chunks
• 200g yogurt
• 200g coconut milk
• 2 jalapenos
• 1 large onion
• 2 large garlic cloves
• 2 tbsp ketchup
• 1.5 tbsp curry powder
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp ginger
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 tbsp lemon juice

Method

1. Cut the chicken into 1cm wide chunks. Set it aside for now.
2. Dice onions, garlic, and peppers.
3. Fry them in a pan for a couple minutes, then add the bay leaf and all the spices. Not the ketchup though, that's not a spice.
4. Fry them a bit more. The air should be delicious but slightly difficult to breathe at this point.
5. Add the chicken in. Let it brown for a minute. You're not aiming to cook it all the way through, just let it brown a bit.
6. Add the coconut milk, the yogurt, and the ketchup. Turn the heat down relatively low and let that mess simmer for about 20 minutes.
7. If you haven't made rice yet, now would be a good time to start. You have 20 minutes and rice takes maybe 15.
8. Take the bay leaf out and pour the lemon juice in. Let it simmer like that for about five minutes more.
