This was a different way in making a ‘curry’. So I fried the chicken and then added it to the curry mixture. Yes it was nice but different. It almost didnt feel like I was eating a curry. I think that was what spoilt this dish. If they had named it anything else I would have accepted it more but i was under the false pretence of thinking I was making a true curry!
