Traditional Punjabi Chicken Curry

This recipe is dedicated to my Grandma (Rajo Kaur), she makes the best food and used to be a chef. This isn't your typical curry and the sauce is very runny but the best thing about it is that the sauce is truly amazing. I learnt this recipe and will pass it down for generations to come #mycookbook

Moes Bizzar Curry Moes Bizzar Curry
I started this as a chicken curry, then I added apple sauce, mango chutney, can of new potatoes and then can of tomatoes and cream and it transformed into a lovely dish. The family loved it with crusty bread to dip. You could taste all flavours and you got a little kick at the back of your throat from the curry but not enough that it overtook the other ingredients. Really was yummy. Its similar to my sweet curry but more taste. Lovely. Maureen 😀 -

I love chicken pot pie, he loves flavor. This is a match made in heaven. The secret is the Pillsbury Crescent Roll top—better than pie crust!This is an amalgamation of several of our favorite recipes. The curry base is heavily adapted (and simplified) from a vegetarian recipe we found on BBC: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/3165/curried-vegetable-pieThe veggie option was good, but we found the chicken adds a lot of that umami flavor, and it’s the perfect use of leftover chicken!
