Method

  1. Boil the rice following the packet instructions.
  2. Cut the onion into thin strips and the pepper either into small dice or thin strips.
  3. Gently fry the onion in olive oil and, when it’s translucent, add the pepper and salt.
  4. When the onion and pepper have been cooking for a few minutes, add the chicken and stir well.
  5. Add the coconut milk (it’s important to shake the can well) and after a few minutes add the curry.
  6. Taste and adjust the salt and curry.
  7. Serve with the boiled rice.
  8. Done!
  9. I recommend adding the curry and salt little by little until it’s just how you like it.
  10. It’s just as delicious in a packed lunch.
