9 chicken curry recipes to cuddle up to

Chicken curries to cuddle up to

Make your own curry paste from scratch and you'll never look back.

Ben Dearnley

The Thai green chicken curry is practically an Australian dinner staple. If you have time on your side, pound your own curry paste by hand à la Palisa Anderson’s gaeng keow wan gai. For a spicy-sour hit, the Chiang Mai curry sings with ginger and tamarind; or make for the ohn no khao swè if you like your chicken curries earthy, soupy and noodle-y.
