Comment préparer African Chicken Curry In Rich Palm Oil
- Cut 1 lb potatoes into large bite-sized pieces and boil in 2 cups of water for 7 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Finely dice 2 large onions.
- Peel and mince 4 cloves garlic.
- Mince 1 tbsp fresh ginger.
- Cut 2 green bell peppers into large bite-sized pieces.
- Set aside 1 tsp whole cumin seeds.
- Grind the following whole spices: 1 tsp coriander seeds, 1 tsp cumin seeds, ½ tsp black peppercorns, ½ tsp fennel seeds, and 1 tsp turmeric powder. (Do not use pre-ground spices)
- Heat 1 cup virgin red palm oil in a wide, deep nonstick pan over high heat until it sizzles and smokes slightly.
- Add the reserved 1 tsp whole cumin seeds and a pinch of saffron threads. Cook for 30 seconds.
- Add the diced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned (about 5 minutes).
- Stir in the ginger, garlic, and ground spice mixture. Cook for 1 minute.
- Add 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 (13.5 oz) can full-fat coconut milk. Stir well.
- Slowly whisk in 1 cup plain yogurt (use 2% for a lighter version).
- Season with salt to taste.
- Add the potatoes, green peppers, and 1.5 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs. Mix well.
- Reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer for 1 hour, checking occasionally.
- After 1 hour, assess the sauce. If too soupy, remove the chicken thighs and set aside. Uncover the pan and increase heat to high to reduce the sauce.
- Stir frequently until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
- Reduce heat to low, return the chicken to the pan, and stir to combine.
- Turn off the heat, stir in ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro, and serve hot over basmati rice or with warm naan bread.
