Phil's Chicken with Spicy Coconut Milk Gravy - TastyPlanner.com
Chef: Phil Hoskin
Chicken with spicy coconut milk gravy is a delicious meal from Malaysia. It is an original recipe I obtained whilst in Kuala Lumpur. Try it with my ‘steamed rice’ and ‘naan’ recipes.
Recipe Source: Kuala Lumpur Malaysia
Ingredients
5 kg (3lb) roasting chicken
2 1/2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
2 medium onions, chopped
3 stalks lemon grass or rind of 1 lemon
2 teaspoons sambal ulek
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
3 tablespoons oil
3 cups thick coconut milk
3 strips (finger length) daun pandan or few leaves fresh basil
2 teaspoons salt
Instructions
Cut chicken into curry pieces. Pound the ginger, onions, lemon grass or rind and the chillies with a mortar and pestle, or grind in electric blender with a little oil until they form a paste. Rub chicken pieces with turmeric until they are coated all over.
Heat oil in a heavy saucepan and fry the ground ingredients over a low heat, stirring constantly, for 15 minutes or until soft and golden.
Add chicken and fry until light brown (about 5 minutes). Remove chicken and place in ‘slow cooker’.
Add coconut milk, pandan or basil leaves and salt into ‘slow cooker’ for six hours.
Serve with white rice or nasi lemak.
