The basmati rice with chicken curry is a dish very aromatic d ‘ Asian-inspired . A quick and easy recipe , perfect if you are planning an ethnic dinner .
Easy, fast, but also sophisticated. Basmati rice with chicken curry is in its own way a classic of oriental cuisine, which solves an entire menu in one fell swoop, since it is a substantial single dish.
The water required for cooking rice, equal to its volume, may seem small, but it is not. The important thing is that cooking is airtight, without vents, so as not to disperse steam. With a little water, rice retains a greater amount of starch and flavor.
Coconut milk is a very common element of Asian gastronomy, even if in our country we are not very used to using it, especially in savory recipes. In this preparation it is an essential ingredient, which dilutes with its sweetness the spicy taste given by curry, but also by ginger and chilli.
The cashews to be sprinkled on the surface are the final touch that gives crunchiness to the dish. If you prefer fish, try the Rice curry with prawns.
