This chicken curry recipe is great for weekend family meals or for entertaining your friends.

They have the most fantastic tasting chicken in France as they are very proud of the quality of their poultry.

Much depends on the quality of your chicken of course and a free range chicken will give you a superb flavor, but if you can't afford one of these simply buy the best you can as it will still taste delicious with this recipe.

You can use chicken pieces, or preferably thighs, for this if you prefer but it is much cheaper to use a whole chicken cut into pieces and it gives a better flavor too. Or, if serving to children chop up 4 chicken breasts into bite size pieces which will make it easier for them to eat.

Instructions
 

  • Peel the carrots and dice along with the apple and celery.
  • Chop the garlic.
  • Heat the butter in a large heavy bottom pan (big enough to hold the whole chicken pieces and vegetables) and brown the chicken pieces for a few minutes on all sides.
  • Add the diced vegetables, the apple and a little salt and pepper.
  • Add the flour and the curry powder and mix this in well.
  • Add 10 ounces of hot water, stir gently.
  • Add the tomato quarters and bring to a high heat for about 1 minute then reduce to a simmer.
  • Simmer for about 1-1ΒΌ hours. Keep an eye on it and stir the sauce occasionally to prevent it sticking.
  • When cooked, take the chicken out of the pan and place on a warm plate or dish. Skim off any fat from the sauce.
  • Stir in the cream and simmer for 1 minute.
  • To serve, arrange the chicken on a serving dish with the sauce over it and serve with your favorite rice. One of the best rice dishes to have with this recipe is Rice Pilaf.
  • Serve the rice separately and accompany with little bowls of desiccated coconut , mango chutney and bananas and for that French touch, a blob of crΓͺme fraiche.
