Curry Chicken - the easy way


Nowadays I cook my curry chicken without having to blend or ground chillies. It is so easy to just buy the curry paste from the supermarket and with instruction on the back of the packet but I added some extra spices for a hotter curry and some other ingredients.

My family prefer the curry to be more watery so that they can dip their bread into the gravy. Sometimes I cook the curry thicker without adding more water. Yummy.

Nian Gao (Chinese New Year Cake)

This is Nian Gao (after cutting them into slices). You can view the original nian gao in my previous post in here. Have you fried yours yet?

Cut the nian gao into thin slices. Make a batter of plain flour, beaten egg and some water (not dilute). Dip the nian gao into the batter and deep fry them.



The finished product .... yummy. Best eaten when hot.
