Clean - up

My mailbox can do with a clean-up and the best way to do that will be to start posting all the recipes collected over the past year. Beginning with the end, La Vierge (;-)) sent me a copy of her recipe. This was the chicken curry she had cooked for the welcome week and it was really delicious!!

Volaille au curry (serves 4):

Chicken 1.5 kgs
Onion 1 large, chopped finely
Shallot 1 chopped finely
Apple 1
Lime 1 juiced
Flour 2 tablespoons
Oil 2 tbsp
Crème fraiche 2 tbsp
Curry powder (french) 1 tbsp
Coconut milk 1 dl
Chicken stock 2 dl
Garlic 1 pressed clove
Salt & pepper to taste
Basmati rice as accompaniment

Cut chicken in 8-10 pieces
Sautee with oil, chopped onion, shallot, salt & pepper.
When golden, add curry powder, garlic, flour, mix.
Then add coconut milk & stock.
Bring to a boil, add apple pieces, lime juice, cook 20mns.
Take chicken pieces out. Cook sauce to thicken, add crème fraiche.
Add sauce to chicken pieces & serve hot w/basmati rice.
