CURRIED CHICKEN STEW

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add curry powder and turmeric; cook, stirring constantly, for 4 to 5 minutes. Add onion and garlic; cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add chicken; cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Add tomatoes, potatoes, carrot, coconut milk, and tomato paste. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until potatoes and carrots are tender and soup is thick, about 1 hour. Add chicken broth if soup is too thick for your liking. Season with salt and pepper.

KALE MOA (SAMOAN CHICKEN CURRY)

Steps:

• 1. In a large pot, preferably a stock pot, over medium heat, add your oil and onion. Saute the onion until it is almost translucent.
• 2. Add in the garlic, ginger, and curry powder. Saute everything in the pot until these become aromatic.
• 3. Add in chicken pieces, 2 cups of water, and 2 cups of coconut milk. (If you're using canned coconut milk, be sure to also use the thick cream on top for a nice, rich, and thick sauce for your kale.) Bring the pot to a boil, then turn heat down to low simmer, and cover. Simmer about 20 minutes.
• 4. Add in vegetables, stir. Bring the kale up to a boil once more, then back down to a low simmer, covered. Simmer for about another 20 or so minutes until carrots or potatoes are fork-tender but not falling apart.
• 5. Mix together the remaining 6 Tbsp of water with 6 Tbsp of flour to make a quick slurry. (At the point, if you think it could use more heat, feel free to add more curry powder.) Add this to the pot, turning the heat back up to medium, and stirring until thickened. Season well with salt and pepper. Serve with rice.
