Chicken Masala Recipe

Hints and Tips

When buying your chicken buy the best you can afford, the very cheapest packs usually have a high water content which then reduces the size of the chicken pieces when cooked. You do not need to buy the expensive organic or corn fed chicken as this has no additional nutritional value & any extra flavour it may have would lost in the Masala sauce.

You can buy pre-diced chicken in most supermarkets, if you don’t want to cut the chicken yourself, this will save preparation time & handling of raw produce.

If you find the recipe too spicy or not spicy enough you can adjust by changing the amount of Chili powder, this carries the heat, the Garam Masala & turmeric carry flavour.

If you do not want to buy fresh coriander (you will not use the whole packet and the rest might go to waste) you could use the ready chopped frozen packs. 

Do not use the jars of dried chopped leave as the have little real flavour and you’d be better without.
