Background

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.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp groundnut oil
6 Tbsp Nyonya Curry Paste
4 boneless chicken thighs
200g new potatoes
120g green beans
400 ml light coconut milk
200 ml water
Fresh coriander, to garnish

Instructions

Cut the potatoes into chunks. Par-boil them in a saucepan for 5 mins.
Cut the chicken into similar sized chunks.
Heat the oil in a large pan or wok over a medium-low heat, then add the
chicken and stir-fry for 2 mins to brown.
Add the Nyonya paste and stir fry for another couple of minutes.
Add the drained potatoes and continue to stir-fry for 3 mins.
Add the coconut milk and the water and bring to the boil.
Reduce heat, simmer uncovered for 10 mins then add the beans.
Continue simmering for 5-6 minutes until cooked, then serve.

Tips

It contains potatoes already, but I like to serve it with fragrant boiled rice.
