Chicken Curry

If my memory had not failed me, here's the recipe:


Ingredients:
Tesco's drumsticks (super cheap, £1.50 for 6 drumsticks)
Cubed 2 carrots
Whole packet of Tau fu pok
Cubed 2 big potatoes
Chopped garlic
Sliced ginger
Additional: Chopped onion

Sauces and seasonings (it depends how hot and salty you want the sauce to be, so I'm not gonna put down the exact measurements, just modify it along the way):
Adabi curry powder
Ground ginger powder
Soy sauce
Chicken stock cube
Sugar
Black peppercorn
Spices: Bay leaves, cumin seeds, cinnamon stick, white peppercorn

1. Fry the spices till fragrant then add in the garlic, ginger and onion and fry them till golden brown.
2. Add in the chicken and fry till their skin turns a little whitish.
3. Dunk in all the other seasonings at one go (I'm lazy so I don't care anyway). I did not add corn starch to this cuz the potatoes would thicken the curry with its natural starch. Continue stir frying.
4. Add in potatoes and carrots.
5. Pour water until everything is beneath the water.
6. Cover and simmer the curry for 15 minutes. The longer the better lah...
7. Add in the tau fu pok.
8. Simmer for another 5-10 minutes
9. Taste and add the sauces according to your taste buds.
10. Serve piping hot with rice.
Enjoy!!!
