Story


Chicken, when stewed in boiling water, gets though, then very slowly gets soft again. This is the proteins in the chicken coagulating, then the If you don't let it boil the chicken will stay soft. How you stew the chicken depends on how much time you have. A fast curry like this needs to keep from boiling.
No doubt a real, long-stew curry tastes better. But you need to start hours before dinner.
