Tomato and Coconut Chicken Curry

"A not-too-hot curry with Thai flavours. I absolutely adore this dish. It's better than restaurant quality. Don't leave out the fish sauce, it's the magic ingredient in Thai food and doesn't taste anything like it smells!"

  1. This was amongst the best dishes we have cooked so far. I have made lots of similar curries but never thought of adding tomatoes and paste. What a difference they made! The only alterations we made were to omit the sugar and throw in some red and green capsicum at the end. This is my sort of food thanks dale!!
     
  2. Quick and easy delicious curry. Highly recommend.
     
  3. Quite tasteless. I'll try to fix up the leftovers by adding more curry paste. Very disappointed after reading all the positive reviews.
     
  4. Loved this dish. The sauce is very similar in flavor to one I used to get at a favorite restaurant. I'm delighted to find something I can now make at home. I cheated a little and used canned diced tomatoes with garlic, and used chicken breast meat, but otherwise followed the recipe to the letter. Really enjoyed this quick, flavorful curry. Thanks, dale!
     
  5. 2 onions seemed like a lot, so I only used one and subbed chicken breasts for the thighs. This was a very mild, creamy coconut curry and the tomato was a nice touch. Next time I'll add extra curry paste and maybe a little extra tomato.

I have a passion for healthy and simple dishes with lots of vegetables, although I love a treat every now and again also, especially ice cream!
