This warming and well-rounded Chinese curry is delicious with chicken, seafood or vegetables.

Origin Story
The Chinese curry that we know in the west today has evolved over time as immigration across the world created a fusion of cuisines and traditions. It is believed that we can trace the origins of Chinese curries back to the Tang Dynasty, whose cuisine was influenced by its proximity to India and Persia. However, ‘curry’ as we know it today, didn’t truly gain popularity in China until the 20th Century, when introduced by Indian and Southeast Asian immigrants. Whatever its true origins, Chinese curry is undeniably delicious and worthy of its popularity.

As appliances may vary, these are guidelines only.
If you don’t like whole spices, grind these in a pestle and mortar and add them with the main sauce in step 3 (before final simmer). Alternatively, if left whole, remove them with a spoon before serving.
Use these handy tips to customise your dish:
- Add a handful of halved snow peas or carrots for a change
- Add the base sauce to diced chicken and leave aside for 5 minutes to marinade before cooking to lock in flavour.
