There are many variations of Chicken Curry; Indian, Malay, Nyonya, Hainanese, Chinese bla bla bla. This curry that I'm gonna write about today is something you will find in Singapore and Malaysia, and it is pretty common! The premixes and pastes are also… Singapore chicken curry is tastiest when you use a whole chicken, chopped into pieces leaving bone in. S., boneless chicken is preferred so this recipe uses boneless thigh, which I think results in more tender meat than breast.

- Boiling the potatoes separately will not overcook the chicken and the curry.
- But if you want the same plating as mine, finely slice the potatoes. Using a cookie cutter to cut out round discs. Draw the circumference of your plate on a parchment paper. Place the parchment paper on a baking tray, penciled side down. Lay the potatoes discs along the circumference, overlapping one another. Drizzle some of the chicken oil over the potatoes. Lightly season with salt.
- Place another parchment paper over the potatoes. Place a heavy oven proof plate over the potatoes. This is to make sure that the potatoes will adhere. Wack into a preheated 200 degree celsius or 400 fahrenheit oven and bake for about 20 to 25 mins or until golden brown and fork tender. Remove from oven and carefully transfer onto serving plate.*
