Coconut Chicken Curry
Pane-Bistecca
My daughter loves curries and since they are easy to cook and are gluten-free, I love to cook them. But every curry I cook is different, because this way you never get bored. I always marinate the meat, often the way they do it in India, and then thicken the sauce with either almonds or coconut. This time it was a coconut chicken curry!
A beautifully creamy Curry!
