Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken (about 1.6 kg), cut into pieces
- salt, to season
- 125 ml (½ cup) neutral oil
- 2–3 tbsp Baba’s meat curry powder
- 1 stick cassia
- 3 star anise
- 6 cloves
- 500 g potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
- 400 ml coconut milk
- 400 ml coconut cream
Rempah
- 6 red Asian shallots, peeled
- 4 garlic cloves, peeled
- 3-cm piece peeled ginger
- roti (recipe ) or steamed rice, to serve
Standing time: 30 minutes
Instructions
- Season the chicken pieces well with salt.
- For the rempah, place all the ingredients in a blender and blitz into a smooth paste.
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan and add the rempah. Fry for about 10 minutes, stirring regularly, until very fragrant and the oil has separated from the paste. Add the curry powder and stir until well combined. Add the chicken, cassia, star anise and cloves and stir to coat in the mixture. Add the potatoes, coconut milk and enough water to just cover the chicken. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 20 minutes.
- Add the coconut cream and bring to a simmer again. Allow to stand for at least 30 minutes before serving with roti or steamed rice.
