Homemade chicken dopiaza

[Rizo-UK]

Just knocked up a quick curry from a book I was given for Christmas.

One of my favourite curries, although this is the first time I've made a dopiaza from scratch. Onions, garlic, tomatoes, ginger, turmeric, cumin and fresh chillies. I was a little generous on the chillies ha ha. Nose and eyes still running. Birds eyes, cayennes and a scotch bonnet.

I cheated on the rice, uncle bens micro rice and tesco chipatis.

I'll post up the full recipe if I get enough interest.

This rice was hollowed out. The curry was down to plate below.

Going to start writing the recipe out in a bit.

Olive Oil
½ cup hot water
½ tsp ginger

2-3 whole chillis (type depends on how hot you like it)
¼ tsp chilli powder
½ tsp ground black pepper

2 bay leaves

Heat 2 tsp oil in a wok/frying pan etc
Gently fry the quartered onions until soft, not brown. Remove from heat and set aside.

Fry the bay leaves, corriander, black pepper, garlic, diced onions,ginger,turmeric,chillies and chilli powder for 5 mins to release the flavours

Then add the salt, blended tomatos and hot water, allow to simmer for 5 mins to thicken slightly.

Once sauce has reduced a little add in your chicken, cook for 10 mins until tender then add in the ¼ d onions from earlier, stir through and continue cooking for 5 mins.

Serve however you like
