This slow chicken curry recipe is from the Mother India at Home recipe book I gave David for Christmas (it's called Smeena's slow chicken curry in the book).

There's loads of delicious looking recipes in the book...we'll definitely be making a few of them!!

Mother India is a restaurant in Glasgow and a new favourite after being recommended by good friends who live nearby...it's one of their go to places for Indian food.   David's now been twice and I've been once...literally the weekend before the first Covid lockdown in March 2020.

I looked to see if there was a recipe book for the restaurant when looking for gift ideas for our friend's 50th in October last year - I was very pleased to find it on Amazon.   After ordering her one, which she loves, I decided to buy it for David too for Christmas.

There's a bit of prep required in removing the skin from the chicken once you've jointed it (David did this bit...!!), but after that it's pretty straightforward and there's no difficult ingredients.

The end result is an absolutely delicious, full of flavour curry with the most tender chicken.   We loved it and will definitely make it again.   It's a great recipe to make ahead if you're entertaining - simply reheat it on the hob in the pan you cooked it in.

Tips

  • To roast the cumin seeds – heat a frying pan or skillet over a medium heat and dry roast the seeds for 2 to 3 minutes, until they change to a dark brown.   Turn off the heat and allow to cool slightly before crushing lightly in a pestle and mortar or spice grinder.
  • Chicken – you could easily use skin on bone in thighs or drumsticks to make this slow chicken curry recipe.   Just remove the skin as you would if you were using whole chicken.
