This recipe was given to me by an older indian lady who learned it from her mom. It tastes AMAZING and my kids love it, and it freezes very well!

Add chicken pieces to the curry gravy. add salt if desired. Cover and let cook for 15 to 20 minutes. add the potatoes and cook for another 15 to 20 minutes or until chicken and potatoes are cooked through. at the end, add 3 tbs. of coconut milk, mix and remove from heat.

 

 

This recipe comes from the same indian lady who gave me the soup recipe. I usually add far more coconut milk for a creamier curry with more sauce so that we can pour it over rice. Also, I like to use sweet pottoes or yams instead of regular white potatoes. I also add a little bit of brown sugar when i add the curry.

Wondering how many lentils to add to this soup. Since it has 3 potatoes I would think maybe 2 cups or so? Thank you for sharing these recipes because we (my whole family) LOVES Thai cooking.
