BEST Chinese Chicken Curry Recipe - My Grandfather's Restaurant Recipe

NB. You need to watch my "How to make a Chinese Curry Sauce Like Takeaway Curry' video first to learn how to make the curry sauce    • How To Make Chinese Curry Sauce Like ...  

Possibly the most asked questions on my channel are how to make a chinese curry and what's in a chinese curry sauce?
Well I'm going to show you!
This recipe has been handed down from my grandfather down to my mum, and then to me and my siblings. It is honestly the best chinese curry I've ever tasted. Based on a Malaysian/Chinese recipe, the base is made from fruit, curry powder, garlic, chillis and lots more to create that fabulous depth of flavour. It is warming, sweet, moderately spicy and so, so satisfying.
Once you've made your curry base (link above), which is made in a big batch and can be stored in the freezer for a very long time, making the actual dishes is really quick and simple.
I find that food connects us as families and people and helps make special memories. This being my grandfather's recipe is super special to me and it give me great pleasure to share it with you.

From my heart to your heart,
Michael :)
