Chicken Ceylon With Massalla Gravy

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I made this with shrimp, to ring the changes! Spicy, smooth and delicious, I added the shrimp much later than the chicken would be added. I made the massalla gravy first, and then started with the spice mix. I omitted step 4 and advanced to step 5, and allowed the gravy and spices to cook for a while, until I felt I had a good flavour and consistency. (I didn't use the grated coconut, just the coconut milk, in fact used coconut cream. I'm not fond of grated coconut.)
    I added the shrimps and continued cooking for several minutes until they were cooked through, and then added the coriander.

    I served it with recipe#353583, by I'm Pat.

    This was a delicious curry that I will make again, thank you, Sharon!
