Chicken Nyonya Curry
It’s hard to say where Nyonya originally comes from. The flavour is a fusion of Chinese, Indonesian and Malayan cuisines yet has a distinct quality of its own. If you’re a curry-lover looking for something deliciously different, do give this Chicken Nyonya Curry a go! By the way, the Nyonya paste is nowadays widely available in supermarkets – certainly in the UK anyway.
