Hello Mamta

Just wondering if you have ever heard the above curry. Number one son has raved about it after trying it in a restrauant in Darwin. Not sure what region it is from in India. Will google but thought I would try my favourite site first

Cheers

June

Kavey has given you the answer already.

It is a Kokan Curry. As far as making it is concerned, there are quite a few recipes on the web. Apart from coconut in it, it looks very similar to northern Chicken curry; see here http://www.indiacurryrecipes.com/2007/09/malvani-chicken-and-jeera-rice.html

You could make a standard chicken curry and add some creamed coconut at the end, just like adding double cream.

Thanks Mamta and Kavey,

I agree with what you have suggested - a good chicken curry recipe with added coconut. One recipe I found had 8 hot green chillis! That would definitely pack a punch.

Regards

June
