With curry leaves 😋

Original source https://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=146246

Not the same as the old recipe we had but similar. Main thing I think to improve this would be to simmer the tomatoes by themselves (swear the old recipe did that). And/or remove the tomato skins like for gazpacho.

Ingredients

• 4 tbsp oil
• 6 curry leaves
• 1/2 tsp mixed onion & mustard seeds
• 8 medium tomatoes sliced
• 1 tsp ground corriander
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp garlic pulp (I just use 1 clove, prob good w/more)
• 675g skinned chicken, cubed
• 150ml/ 2/3 cups water
• 1 tbsp sesame seeds roasted (Skipped because don’t think they were in original recipe)
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh coriander/cilantro

Instructions

• Heat the oil and add curry leaves and mixed onion and mustard seeds
• Lower heat and add tomatoes — cook these mofos down to a saucy consistency

• Add mixed spices to the tomatoes and stir
• Add chicken and mix together
• Stir fry for approx 5 minutes
• Add water and continue cooking and stirring until chicken is cooked
