 How To Make Chinese Chicken Curry


Tender chicken pieces, onions, peppers, and green peas are cooked in a homemade curry sauce for a delicious Chinese Chicken Curry. It's simple, fast, and easy to make, and it's full of flavor. You'll learn how to prepare Chinese chicken curry from scratch using common household items in this article. Simple, but not dull in flavor I can assure you of that.



What is the definition of Chinese curry?


Some people may be shocked to hear the words "Chinese" and "curry," since curry is not often associated with Chinese food. However, there is a Chinese curry that is one of the most popular meals in Chinese takeaway and restaurants in the United Kingdom and the United States.


This Western-style Chinese curry sauce is thicker, softer, and sweeter than Indian curries and is quite similar to Japanese curry roux. Curry powder, turmeric, and Chinese five spices are used to season this curry sauce foundation. The gravy is thickened with corn starch and plain flour. 


  • Indian curry pastes, on the other hand, are composed mostly of onions, tomatoes, and cream. I'm certain you'll like my Westernized Chinese Chicken Curry because:

  •  Can make the delicious creamy sauce quickly and easily If you double or quadruple this recipe, you can feed your whole family on a shoestring budget without purchasing takeout.


How to create it from the ground up


Chinese curry paste, as a ready-made store-bought product, is not widely available in several states and counties. After receiving several requests from viewers for the restaurant-style Chinese curry with onions and peas, I decided to offer my tried-and-true homemade recipe.


These dish tips come from a Chinese person, and I have adapted them to suit the needs of our family. The ingredients in this recipe are very suitable, so you can make it to your liking. Here are a few simple steps.


1. Curry sauce prepared from scratch


Chicken stock, curry powder, turmeric, Chinese five spices, salt, sugar, corn starch, and plain flour are all needed to prepare this creamy flavorful sauce. In a saucepan, combine all of the ingredients and whisk over low-medium heat until it thickens.


To obtain the umami curry flavor, use chicken stock instead of water, like you would at your favorite restaurant. You may leave out the chilli powder if you're preparing a kid-friendly or milder version.


2. Season the meat with salt and pepper


You don't have to marinade for an hour. Simple soy sauce and freshly ground white or black pepper are used to season the meat. That concludes our discussion.


In this dish, I used boneless chicken breast. Use chicken thighs, beef, prawns, or any other tender meat you choose! Use a tender steak cut and a half teaspoon of baking soda in the beef marinade to tenderize the meat if using beef.


3. The cooking procedure


After a few minutes of stirring, add the meat and veggies to the curry sauce mix. This recipe is best served with onions, peppers, and green peas. Carrots, potatoes, snow peas, and mushrooms are all good additions. Replace the chicken with tofu cubes and the chicken broth with vegetable stock for a vegetarian version.


How should this meal be served?


We normally serve it with additional chopped spring onions on top of steaming steamed jasmine rice or fried rice. Make it a wonderful fakeaway supper by serving it with Crispy Fried Wonton, Hot and Sour Soup, Crispy Chilli Beef, or Sweet and Sour Prawn. Your Chinese culinary abilities will wow your friends and family!
