Spicy Chicken Curry with Curd

written by Amila Gamage Wickramarachchi May 5, 2016
5 Basic Rules to Follow When Cooking Meat

Chicken curry with curd is another spicy chicken curry I cook at my home. However adding curd is not Sri Lankan way of cooking. We usually cook curries using coconut milk. I adapted this recipe from Indian cuisine, but spices and other ingredients are from my Sri Lankan kitchen.

Adding curd to the chicken curry didn’t give any unpleasant flavor to the curry. Instead, it was a creamy and thick curry which we liked. Appearance of the chicken curry is good too and bit similar to the look of Sri Lankan Chicken curry which I cook with raw spices.

Well, most of the time, the Sri Lankan way of cooking chicken curry is with roasted spices. All neighbors know when we cook chicken curry or similar spicy dish because of the aroma of spices. It is actually delicious. But, it needs few more steps like roasting the spices in a pan, then mix with chicken and so on. Instead, I like to cook quickly. So, this is another recipe I use to cook chicken at home.
