SWEET CHICKEN CURRY
This is an adaptation of my mother's curry recipe. It produces a delightfully mild (depending on your curry mix) and sweet stew. This mixture makes enough mild, sweet curry to feed six unashamedfly hungry people, and freezes well.To lose the syrupy/sweet aspect, use plain coconut cream instead of the colada mix. If you can't find coconut milk, use some plain yogurt and brown sugar or honey instead.

Steps:
- In a pot, brown the meat, onions and garlic in oil (Chicken should be skinned). Generously sprinkle curry powder on meat (commercial preparations are fine on their own or cut with some homemade).
- Mix your stock and thickener in a cup.
- Add stock mixture, coconut milk and cream to the chicken.
- If you don't want to break the bank over one meal, forage in your refrigerator for any questionable vegetables you want to use up and start dicing potatoes and throw them in now.
- Season to taste. Simmer for at least 10 minutes- thickening your sauce to desired consistency, though feel free to torment your family and/or guests by cooking this for a few hours.
- Serve with rice, thick pita bread, salad and your fave condiments.
- Suggested condiments include corn kernels, peanuts (or other nuts), raisins, chopped hard-boiled eggs, sliced banana in lemon or lime juice, sliced cucumber in yoghurt (or in a cream dressing- we like garlic), dried coconut, raisins and other dried fruits, and chutney.
SIMPLE, SWEET AND MILD CURRY BLEND
This curry blend is made from everyday ingredients found in most people's kitchens. I usually like alot of "heat" in my curry powder, but this is a great substitute for Indian flavor, without too much "fire" from red chilis or cayenne. Can be used in any recipe that calls for curry powder.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a heavy-based pan. Fry the onions gently for 5 - 10 mins until soft. Add the garlic, ginger, coriander, mustard seeds, garam masala and cumin and cook for 1 - 2 min allowing the aromas to release.
- Add the chicken and cook for 10 mins over a gentle heat, flipping occasionally and making sure the spices don't catch. Pour in around 300 ml boiling water until almost covering. Stir in the stock cube and cinnamon stick. Simmer for around 45 mins - 1 hour with the lid off so there is a small amount of thickened sauce at the bottom of the pan. Remove the cinnamon stick.
- Stir in the yogurt and sultanas, heat through gently and serve. Scatter with coriander, if using.

Tips:
- Experiment with different ratios of spices to find your perfect blend. For a milder curry, use more cumin and coriander. For a spicier curry, use more cayenne pepper and chili powder. - If you don't have all the spices on hand, you can substitute similar spices. For example, you could use ground ginger instead of fresh ginger, or paprika instead of cayenne pepper. - Toasting the spices before grinding them will help to release their flavor and aroma. - Store your curry blend in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. It will keep for up to 6 months. - You can use your curry blend to flavor a variety of dishes, including chicken, beef, vegetables, and lentils.Conclusion:
Making your own curry blend is a great way to save money and customize the flavor of your curries. With a little experimentation, you can create a blend that is perfect for your taste. So next time you're in the mood for a curry, skip the store-bought blend and make your own. You'll be glad you did!
