Almond Curry

2017 Update: Due to a problem with Photobucket, see here, there will be a lot of recipes without photos. I will be slowly redoing the recipe pages, as best I can, but many other posts will be impossible to replace. I’m doing this in my own time, while continuing to update the blog with new recipes and posts. If you’d like to donate, any amount appreciated, you can do so here. The site will always be free, the recipes will never be locked behind a paywall, but this is a lot of additional work. I’m not demanding or begging, just putting it there so if you feel like repaying my hard work you have that option. I don’t make any money from the site, all that I do here is to help others, I couldn’t charge for that.

 

Almond Curry.

Nut butter makes a fantastic thickener. This is one of mine and it’s simple, but flavourful.

Ingredients

1 Chicken Breast/Turkey Breast
160ml Coconut Milk
1 and 1/2 Tbsp Almond Butter
1/2 Yellow Onion, Chopped Fine
2 Cloves Garlic, Minced
1 Tbsp Butter/Olive Oil
1/4 Tsp Garam Masala
1/8 Tsp Cumin
1/8 Tsp Ground Coriander
1/8 Tsp Black Pepper
1/8 Tsp Ground Turmeric
1/8 Tsp Ground Ginger
1/8 Tsp Sugar

Can be frozen.
1 Tsp if using Spice Blend.

Optional:

Add 1 Medium Apple, Cored, Peeled and cut into chunks and 1 Tbsp Sultanas/Raisins alongside Chicken.
1/2 Tsp Grated Turmeric Root instead of Ground. Add alongside Onion and Garlic.

Method

1. Heat Butter in a pan and when melted add Onion and Garlic, mix and cover. Let cook for 5-10 minutes, on a medium heat, or until soft.

2. Add Spices and Sugar and stir together, then add Chicken, stir and cook for 5 minutes. Alternatively: Add everything except the Garam Masala and add it just before serving for a different taste.

3. Add Coconut Milk and Almond Butter and stir, bring to boil, cover and then reduce to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes.
