    Malaysian Chicken Curry, I love these tender chicken pieces in fragrant coconut curry gravy When served with hot coconut rice and fried anchovies, it’s called Nasi Lemak (Check out my recipe for the rice) I’d like to think this is lower in fat than those restaurant ones Eat the leftover with crusty French bread Yum , My family love this dish and I make it every week I omit the evaporated milk and it turns out fine , This was amazing!! It was our first attempt at anything like this, and we loved it We did not have all of the ingredients (we were missing curry leaves and red chilies), but it was still wonderful We served with white basmati rice, and my DH ate until he was stuffed! We will definitely make this again Thanks WaterMelon – this recipe’s a keeper
