Mild chicken curry with coconut milk

This is a simple curry, mild enough for kids to eat and easy enough for them to cook.


Ingredients
vegetable oil
1 kg of chicken breast or thigh meat, cut into large chunks
250g onion, finely chopped
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp minced ginger
2 tbsps mild curry powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tin of coconut milk

Method
  1. In plenty of vegetable oil, gently fry the chopped onion until it is almost done.
  2. Add the garlic and ginger, and fry for another minute.
  3. Add the curry powder and salt, fry for another 30 seconds.
  4. Add the chicken, stir well so that is coated in the onion and spice mixture, and fry for about 10 minutes.
  5. Add the coconut milk, bring to a boil, reduce heat to minimum and simmer for 30 minutes.
