Everyday Chicken Curry: our family special recipe

This is our house’s everyday chicken curry. Like our house, it has mixed methods but is super duper delicious! If you try it out, you will agree!

This is our house’s everyday chicken curry. It is slightly weird, as in I don’t think you can slot it in a kind of chicken curry. It has influences from our mixed household. The bhuna masala from my childhood, coconut milk from husband’s childhood, aloo from my son’s nanny from Bengal and chicken masala that another help from Dharwad taught us. ⁣

Everyday Chicken Curry



This is a curry we all LOVE at home and almost all of us know how to make. It might not be a historical curry but then who knows many generations down it will become one. It is certainly going in our family cookbook if it ever gets written.

I hope you like a bite of our home. If you make this, do tag me and share the happiness. ⁣ Links to share stuff with me are – Twitter, Instagram or Facebook
