Chicken Chicken Curry

Recipe by: Madhumita

Reviews(4)

There are a hundred different ways to cook chicken curry, but Bengalis (from the eastern part of India) make something called Kosha (or kawshaa) which is very good with either rice or any kind of flat bread. This recipe is called moorgi kosha (or chicken kosha), but my friend Jennie calls it Chicken Chicken Curry!

Chicken Korma

A traditional, mild North Indian recipe. An unforgettable dish when served on a bed of pilau rice with some Peshwari naan.

Cholay (Curried Chickpeas)

Recipe by: SHAMMI EDWARDS

Reviews(1)

This is a fragrant and flavourful chickpea curry from North India, usually eaten with fried bread like bhatura or puri. I like to serve it over rice for a filling vegetarian meal. This recipe is much quicker to make if you use tinned chickpeas as called for here, but try it with dried - I like to think that the authentic flavour comes from doing it the hard way!

Hyderabadi Chicken Biryani

Recipe by: REBECCAKALAKOTA

Be the first to review it!

My husband's mother taught me this recipe, an authentic Hyderabadi-style biryani that is a trademark of home-cooking in South India. For a more traditional version, substitute curd (homemade south Indian yoghurt) for yoghurt. If you cannot find ginger garlic paste, crush together ginger and garlic in equal portions.

Indian Saag

Recipe by: VALONE

Be the first to review it!

Saag is a curry of cooked mustard or similar 'bitter' greens (kale, turnip greens), and spinach or similar mild greens (chard, pak choi, beetroot greens). Any combination of greens works! Use more spices and peppers for hot saag, or less for mild.

Karai Chicken Curry

Recipe by: Nausheen Khan

Be the first to review it!

This is an extremely easy and flavourful chicken curry with just a few simple ingredients. Traditionally for this dish a whole chicken is cut into 16 pieces (usually by the butcher) but you can make it with bigger pieces as well. The spiciness of the dish can be varied by increasing or decreasing the amount of black pepper and green chilli in the recipe to suit your taste.

Kurma chicken curry

Recipe by: BitsOfTaste

Be the first to review it!

I learnt this from my Mother in law. She is a good cook, especially anything that is spicy or curries.

Lamb Madras Curry

Recipe by: heymrleej

Be the first to review it!

This is my all time favourite curry to make; it's pungent flavour wins me over every time. You can use beef if you like, but it often takes a little longer to cook, so just leave it simmering for another 20 minutes or until the meat melts in your mouth. I also suggest that you make this 2 days in advance as the flavours will develop and the curry will become even more delicious!
