How to make Malaysian Chicken and Potato Coconut Curry

  2. Add in the chicken pieces and saute for a minute or two.

  3. Grind together all the spices and add to the chicken. Continue cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes.

  4. Add in the cubed potatoes, coconut milk and the brown sugar.

  5. If a thinner gravy is wanted, add in ½ cup of water. Stir, lower the heat and cover with a lid.

  6. Simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken and potatoes are cooked through.

  7. Heat Tilda Coconut Basmati - cook for 2 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
