Ingredients

  • 1 Can Coconut Milk
  • 500g Diced Chicken Breast (or optionally, a mix of chicken and cooked prawns)
  • 600g Potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 small packet salted peanuts
  • 1-3 tsp Bart's Massaman Curry Paste (can be substituted with any red curry paste for a slightly different taste)
  • A splash of thai fish sauce (optional)

Instructions

  • In a large deep frying pan, gently heat the coconut milk with the curry paste and bring to the boil. For a milder curry use 1-2 tsp, for a hotter curry use more.
  • Add the diced chicken breast, cubed potatoes and peanuts and simmer until the potato is soft and the chicken cooked. If using prawns, add these for the last 5 minutes of cooking or they will shrink.
  • Add a splash of thai fish sauce for an authentic flavour and serve with basmati rice.
