Hi and welcome to spice and pans today .
We'll be cooking Singapore chicken curry .
So let's start cooking .
So now we will start by making the spice paste .
I'll be using my magic mix food processor to make the spice paste .
You add in three red onions , two stocks of lemon grass using only the white stem , three pieces of red chili .
We just put them all in mix .
We add in 1.5 to size of young ginger , one thumb size of turmeric , one to size of kale , which is also known as blue ginger .
About 10 to 12 pieces of shallots .
Five pieces of garlic and five pieces of canal nuts .
More into these are 16 pieces of dried chili which I've rehydrated .
If you do not want your curry to be too spicy , you can reduce the portion of the red chili or dried chili in order to reduce the heat .
I've taken out the seeds .
Now to facilitate this being a paste easier , I'll add in a little bit of oil .
Now we are blending all this together .
I'm just going to push some of this down so that it will be evenly cut up and now the paste is done .
I'll show you how it looks like magic mix .
Food processor is a very powerful blender .
You can blend this super , super fine like this , right ?
I used to struggle with other brands of food processor but with my magic mix excellent , easy to do .
OK .
Now we go and fry this .
Now I'll be using my green pan feather like Dutch oven to cook this curry .
First , we heat up the pot .
Once the pot is heated up , we add in oil .
We need oil to fry the space piece we put in the spice paste .
Now .
Yeah , I'm trying the spice at medium to medium lo fi because I don't want to burn them .
Remember to store there .
We will need to try this approximately 15 minutes or so .
I'll show you how it looks like when it's done .
Curry is my wife's favorite dish .
Her grandma used to make her own curry for her and she really loved the taste .
I've been trying to replicate that popular dish and after several tries , I succeeded in making approximately 80% of what it tastes like .
It's still not as good as what her grandma used to do .
But I think it's good enough for her right now .
At this moment .
It's a very flavorful dish and curry is very much welcome in most of the Singaporean household .
I'm beginning to smell how good this is the good thing about using this pot is that because this is a non-stick pot .
I do not have to use a lot of oil inside here .
So that also explain why it takes a little bit longer to fry this .
But it'll be so much healthier .
So you need to fry this until it's slightly dry .
I think it will take about another 10 minutes or so .
I'll show you back in a while .
The paste is almost done .
As you can see when I move this past around , we can see oil coming out from this paste .
That means this is almost done .
Now , I'll add in some more ingredients to make this even tastier .
I have with me over here , one tablespoon of cumin and one tablespoon of coriander seed , which I've dried roasted and grind them into a powder form like this .
We'll put this in , fill them up .
We will also add in two tablespoons of curry powder , meat , curry powder .
I'll be adding in also one small bunch of curry leaves if you do not have this or you cannot find this .
It's fine .
No problem .
But this will give you an additional curry taste or fragrance to this dish .
Now , we need to season this a little bit .
I'm going to add in two teaspoons of salt .
One and one .
Is it not ?
Well , we're adding our chicken .
Now I've washed and cut up one whole chicken .
This is approximately 1 kg .
I'm just putting them in .
Let's move them around for approximately three minutes or so .
Remember to stir underneath because we don't want to burn the curry paste .
I'm using medium heat .
Now , medium to medium low to cook this .
I suggest not to turn the heat up high .
Otherwise you'll burn this dish very easily because of the spice paste .
So medium to medium low will be very good .
So once when we have mixed this up , well , we're adding the vegetables for me .
I'm using potatoes .
650 g of potato .
Put them here .
Look them up a little bit or so .
Now we're adding water and boil this up .
Adding one liter of water , stir it up a little bit .
We will boil this for approximately 20 minutes before we add in the coconut milk .
I'll see you back in a while .
I've been simmering this for half an hour because my wife likes the potatoes to be softer .
Now we'll add a little bit of seasoning to this .
Half a teaspoon of sugar .
And we added another two teaspoon of salt .
Give this a Lester and we will give this a taste .
Look at how beautiful the color is .
It's a taste to make sure that it is savory enough for us .
Wow , very flavorful .
So a little bit more salt .
I reckon .
I need another teaspoon of salt .
So I'm adding this in .
This would be just nice .
Now we're adding the coconut milk .
I'll be adding in 660 mL of coconut milk , slowly gently pour them in and give it a light stir while you pour it in really , really nice .
Now , we wait for this to come to a gentle boy and we will further boil this for another five minutes .
All the curry is done .
I would suggest serving this curry at least one hour after you cook this because then the flavor will all get together .
And also the chicken will be much tastier .
So we will put the lid on , turn off the flame and we will serve in an hours time and now the dish is done .
Let's have a taste .
I'll try some of this gravy first .
Hm .
Very fragrant .
Very , very nice .
The chicken super tender .
I really like this for us .
We like our curry to be a little bit more coconut .
Hence we are using a quite a fair bit of coconut over here .
But if you don't want it to be so coconut in taste , you can always reduce it by 1 to 200 mL of uh coconut milk .
