Spicy Lemon Chicken Curry
Blend of curry powder, cayenne pepper, turmeric, (like you Steve I think it's best for people to put the amount according to personal taste)
What you need
- Fresh Chicken (preferably a couple of breasts – skinned)
- Couple of chopped small onions
- Crushed garlic
- Juice of half lemon
Blend of curry powder, cayenne pepper, turmeric, (like you Steve I think it's best for people to put the amount according to personal taste)
- About half-pint chicken stock
- Tub single cream
- Tin sliced bamboo shoots
Method
Cut the chicken into small pieces, and heat in a small amount of oil in a fair sized frying pan.
Add the onion and garlic.
Fry altogether until the chicken is just turning brown.
Add the spices.
Stir all in Gradually add the stock, and half the cream.
Squeeze in your lemon juice. Heat up.
Simmer for a while (the food that is).
Add the bamboo shoots, and continue to simmer.

If it’s not thick enough for you, add a little cornflower.
Serve with rice, or….
Hope you like it Steve. You mention Strongbow a lot, I realise it is cider, but cannot seem to find it anywhere.
Sorry about that Matt.
Strongbow is brilliant; I'll get in touch with Bulmers and see if it's sold in the States Mark says : "After reading Matt from Ft.Lauderdae's comment on Strongbow, I'm pleased to let him know it is now available in Florida since Dec 2000.You can get it at almost all the British & Irish bars. The George & Dragon (used to be The Trafalgar) on fedral h/way or The Shakespeares in Wilton Manors both carry it."
That’s how our reader does it. Fancy it done by the book? Chicken Curry is our tested recipe along the same lines. Thanks for sending it in!
