Green chicken curry - idea how to eat more vegetables.




This curry sauce is just vegetables and coconut milk. That is an extra portion of vegetables that you can't see in the sauce. The sauce is creamy and aromatic with low fat content. Another idea for a chicken dinners

Ingredients for 6 servings:

  • 800g chicken breasts
  • 2 onions
  • 2cm ginger
  • leek
  • 5 garlic cloves
  • broccoli
  • 2 green peppers
  • courgette
  • 400ml light coconut milk
  • bay leaves, anise, cardamom, cumin, a pinch of cinnamon, salt, pepper
  • tablespoon of rapeseed oil

Extras:
  • naan bread
  • papadoms
  • rice or couscous
Method:
On a tablespoon of oil, fry chopped onion and leek. When the onion softens, add chopped garlic and ginger and diced courgette. Fry for few minutes. While frying vegetables, cut the broccoli. Separate the florets from the stalk. Put the florets away - and grate the stalk using cheese grater. Add to vegetables. Pour boiling water (just to cover vegetables) and cook until tender - about 20 minutes. Blend into a thick sauce. Now put the diced chicken and spices directly into the sauce (bay leaves, anise, cardamom, cumin, a pinch of cinnamon, salt, pepper) Cook for about an hour. Then add the chopped paprika and broccoli florets to the sauce. Cook another 20 minutes. Finally, add coconut milk. Boil and season to taste if necessary.
