* 200 ml water





Method





1. Heat the oil and butter in a wok or large, heavy frying pan. Add the garlic and onion and stir fry for about 5 minutes until onion is golden.


2. Stir in the garam masala, coriander and mint. Add the chicken and cook over a moderate heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.


3. Add the water, stir, and simmer without a lid for 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked and sauce has thickened.

Pataks do a range of Curry pastes ( NOT the cook - in sauces)


eg Madras Tikka Masala Korma to suit most tastes





Method


Fry off onions in Sunflower Oil until golden brown, then add Garlic and chosen paste,. continue to fry off for another 2 mins MAXIMUM then add Lamb, Beef Pork or whatever and plenty of diluted stock and cook SLOWLY until tender


If u r using Chicken thighs as opposed 2 breasts place under a medium grill 2 remove most of the unhealthy skin fat then add 2


sauce mix in pot.





If u r using Chix breasts, cook for a MAXIMUM of 15mins at the end


of cooking





At the intermediate level of cooking, u can add ur favourite Veg


Lentils/Beans/Chick peas or whatever takes ur fancy.


I like it with Chestnut Mushrooms and Tomatoes especially





If u r having the curry with rice/pasta - yeah pasta/polenta/or cous cous add the appropiate stock cube to the boiling water at the start


of cooking ie Chix for Chix, Beef for beef e with a miniscule amount of Saffron or Turmeric for colour and flavour





Yummy Yummy YUMMY

You could try cutting out the chicken??








Nope cause then that would be a veg curry I suppose!!
