potatoes

🥗Healthier: sweet potatoes

💰Cheaper: instant mashed potatoes

Sweet potatoes are more nutritious; instant mashed potatoes save time.

Start with 1 kilogram of chicken pieces (wings, thighs, drumsticks) that have been cleaned.

In a pan, set the heat to low medium (number 3) and add the chicken pieces without any water.

Let the chicken simmer for about 10 minutes.

Add salt, ground turmeric, and ground paprika to the chicken for flavor and color.

Add 1.5 cups of water into the pan and mix it with the spices.

Continue cooking at low medium heat for about 20 to 30 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked through.

Check for doneness by observing the fat separating from the meat, creating a dark orange layer in the pot.

Add rosemary and medium curry powder to the pot for additional flavor.

If desired, add vegetables like potatoes, green beans, and carrots on top of the chicken, ensuring they retain their shape.

Allow the stew to simmer again on low medium heat until the potatoes are fully cooked through.

To thicken the sauce, mix cake flour with water and add it to the stew, stirring gently to avoid crushing the meat.

Let the stew simmer for about 5 minutes to thicken before serving.
