Steps

45 - 1 hr

1

Boil chicken until very tender and set aside. When it’s totally cooled shred and keep aside until ready to use. Save the broth it was boiled in.
2

Chop all ingredients…
3

In a frying pan on medium heat add onions and garlic and fry until translucent. Add 1/2c of curry leaves, diced turmeric and ginger. Fry about 2 minutes.
4

Add chopped tomatoes cover and let this cook until it starts to stick on the bottom. Grab the chicken broth from boiling the chicken and add 3 ladles full (about 2 1/2-3 cups) to the pan. Stir well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Taste and adjust flavors.
5

Add milk, chicken and remaining curry leaves then stir and cook covered for about 30 minutes. Take the corn flour and mix with about 1/4c of water until it’s all dissolved and pour into the chicken stirring continuously and when this thickens turn off heat and we are ready to eat. I served mine with basmati rice which I boiled it in my remaining chicken broth and a little added water. This goes great with naan or flat bread of choice and of course rice of choice.

Tips

This was my first time finding curry leaves in the market and I’m in total awe of the fragrance in the car from it let alone the fragrance from frying it. I’m excited to use it more often and the flavor is just incredible. Enjoy you dish and make this a day to remember 💐🌺🥰
