Chicken Curry in a Pressure Cooker

Submitted by SZNB1986

"My pressure cooker "uses" 1 cup of liquid every 15 minutes. Therefore this recipe results in about 2 cups of thickened sauce. Add more water for more sauce, but remember that it will be thinner and perhaps the seasoning will need to be adjusted. The spice paste and seasoning is done without pressure, but the chicken is cooked under high pressure."
