Description

This curry is delicious and great for those who enjoy a milder curry. It has an East Indian influence and uses the one key ingredient so common to Caribbean cooking - the green seasoning mix.

Serves 4-6

Trinidad

Method

In a bowl, marinate the chicken in the green seasoning (ingredients beside and method below).

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a medium-sized, heavy based saucepan. Add the onion and sauté until soft then add the spices (cumin, turmeric, garam masala) and fry for 2-3 minutes until aromatic.

Add the chicken and green seasoning and stir until coated in the spice mix and simmer for 7-10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through . 

Finally add the coconut milk, mustard (if using), salt and pepper. Gently stir in the mango and heat through.

Serve with rice and roti.

GREEN SEASONING: Blend all ingredients in a blender or food processor.
