Chicken Satay Curry Thermomix

Estimated reading time: 3 minutes

Chicken satay curry is a dish that has Chinese Malaysian origins. This recipe contains chicken pieces served in a lush thick peanut sauce with a hint of mild curry and a brightening of shredded lime leaves.

Developing this recipe was a labour of love! Sometimes recipes just come together easily. I have a vision based on something I have made in the past. I tweak it a little and voila! We have a new Thermomix recipe for the website.

That was not the case with this recipe, this dish was a thorn in my side!

I was asked to make the dish twelve months ago for my brother-in-law as it is a favourite of his. I had two failed attempts then put it on the back burner. It has bothered me ever since.

About a month ago I decided I couldn't let a satay chicken recipe get the better of me. I have now made the dish 5 more times trying to get the "plucker" right!! My poor family has eaten satay chicken curry every night this week. These were versions of the recipe not good enough for publication!

Satay Recipe Tips

There are a few watchpoints and suggestions with this recipe.

• Please don't skip the fresh red chili. It won't make the dish hot but it does give it flavour.
• Use chicken thigh fillets as opposed to breast meat. Thigh fillets hold together, breast meat will shred.
• Cut the chicken into large cubes 45- 55g each.
• Add the coconut cream after the dish is cooked so the taste remains distinct.
• The lime and shredded kafir lime leaves are not simply a garnish, they are essential for giving the dish its fresh bright taste.
• Take advantage of the steam during the cooking time to steam some greens in the Varoma.
