Curry chicken and Rice recipe
October 24, 2019 by TLO in Cooking

I am going to give another recipe a go, and see how we get on. This one was cobbled together slightly chaotically, but was a good experiment in making Chicken Curry whilst camping.

Having fallen in love with my cast iron Camp Oven I have realised how lacking my kitchen equipment is, I am now on a mission to develop my camp kitchen, and to develop some proper recipes that make sense and are useable. This recipe whilst delicious lacks a bit of detail, so you need to use some creative licence to add your own take on  this….

Recipe

Serves 6 blokes

Chicken Legs
4 piece
Thighs if you can get them
Garlic Puree
2 Spoons
Real is a hassle when you are camping
Ginger Puree
3 spoons
maybe 4
Gara Masala
2 spoons
Curry Powder
2 spoons
Mexican Tomato Salsa Dip (For crisps...)
Half a pot
I left the Tomato Puree behind
Lemon
1
Juice off
Olive oil
50ml
Basmati Rice
3 handfuls
More if you are hungry
Peas and Carrots
1 Can
Throw out the brine/ Sauce
Coriander
1 Bunch
Water
3 Cups
Naan Bread
4
Warmed on the lid of Camp Oven
  1. Chuck a Spoon of curry powder, a spoon of Gara Masala powder, a spoon of ginger and a spoon of Garlic into a bowl or Tupperware and mix it all up. Add the Chicken and set it aside to marinade while you complete step 2.
  2. Heat up 50ml of oil, add the chopped onion in a heavy pan with a bit of Gara Masala and Curry powder. Soften the onions in the oil.
  3. Add the chicken and all the sauce into the pan skin side down. Brown it all off nicely. Remove and set it aside while you complete step 4
  4. Add a 50ml more oil, a spoon of garlic and Ginger and the lemon juice to a pan. Add the rice and Tomato sauce.
  5. Add the water and simmer for about 12 mins.
  6. Add the chicken back in and mix in Coriander
  7. Serve.

The problem with Googling a recipe in the supermarket is I rarely retain the details, so when I get home or in the case of this recipe the middle of bloody nowhere I’d forgotten which page I was looking at and exactly what the recipe said.

Despite having not packed all ingredients required I made the most delicious and particularly easy Chicken and Rice curry. The key was my larder was reasonably well stocked, so I was able to cobble things together, the recipe here is what I actually made with notes about what it should have been.

Mine was better than the original
