  • Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds.
  • Turn heat to medium-low and add Patak's curry paste and cook, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes.

  • Add coconut milk and turn chicken to coat.
  • In a small bowl, stir together cumin, coriander and 4 teaspoons water to make a paste. Stir into the curry. Add cayenne pepper, if desired. Season with salt.
  • Add potatoes, cover pot with lid ajar, turn heat to low to medium-low and simmer for 1 to 2 hours, or until chicken is cooked through and the gravy thickens.
