Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken/Tofu

    If using chicken, cut it into bite-sized pieces. If using tofu, drain and press it to remove excess moisture, then cut into cubes.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    Finely chop the onion, garlic, and ginger. Slice the bell pepper and carrot into thin strips.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté Aromatics

    Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until the onion is translucent.

  2. 4

    Add Protein

    Add the chicken pieces or tofu cubes to the pan and cook until browned on all sides.

  3. 5

    Incorporate Vegetables

    Add the sliced bell pepper and carrot to the pan. Stir well to combine.

  4. 6

    Add Spices

    Sprinkle the curry powder, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper over the mixture. Stir to coat the chicken/tofu and vegetables evenly.

  5. 7

    Add Coconut Milk

    Pour in the coconut milk and stir. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

  6. 8

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low and let the curry simmer for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through or the tofu is heated and flavors meld.

  7. 9

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve warm with rice or bread.
