Burmese Chicken Curry


Hi let me introduce Yu Yu not a food blogger, well yet! she is my Brother in Law's girlfriend and from Burma her Mum is Burmese and Dad Indian and she studies in Thailand, how cool. I asked her a while back for a recipe to share with us all so here follows a chicken curry,

Enjoy


I asked my Aunt about Burmese recipes. She said...in Burmese curry they use so little of garlic..sometime they don't put it at all. The curry has been added mainly onion. Sometimes they add tomato and green chili.



Burmese Style Chicken Curry

Ingredients:
  • Chicken (with bone or boneless) 1 Kg
  • Onion (medium size) 12
  • Fish Sauce 1 teaspoon / or a little
  • Chili Powder 2 teaspoon / or taste
  • Salt salt to taste
  • Oil 3 or 4 teaspoon
Method:
  1. firstly..put oil...then fry half of the chopped onion until it turn into golden color. put aside
  2. second, fry the rest of the chopped onion ..it also need to fry until golden color like above one, then put chicken, after that put chili powder (Burmese do not used to eat so spicy curry, they only put chili powder mainly for color), a little fish sauce.
  3. And cook well. u can add water to boil. (pls add water little by little.... not too much at one time)
  4. Finally before you finished cooking..(before 8 or 10 mins), put those fried onion and let it boil for 5 mins. And finished cooking. :-)
