Malaysian Chicken Curry Recipe

We love this curry, you can make is as hot or mild as you like - just add or remove a chilli or two.  This is my titivated version of Gordon Ramsay's recipe from The F-Word and is well worth giving a go and I'm sure you will love it.  

 As to whether or not it's anything like a true Malaysian curry, I've no idea so perhaps we'll call it Malaysian-style curry.
Don't be put off by the long list of ingredients, it's easy to make and you can buy everything needed in any good supermarket.

 I made this for two but if you want it for four people I'd say you can just add more chicken and keep the sauce as it is.  You could add a little more coconut milk and it should be fine.

Claypot Chicken Rice with Chinese Sausage - Lap Cheong

A delicious rice and chicken dish with a lovely mixture of flavours.

Once all the preps out of the way, it's all cooked in one pot - marvelous!

 So, yesterday I went in search of a dried Chinese sausage - as you do!

Beef Rendang

This is a Rick Stein recipe from his book Far Eastern Odyssey. There are many versions of Beef Rendang and this is more of a Malaysian 'wetter' version of the Indonesian dry rendang.

 I'd never had Rendang before and have wanted to make it for ages.  It does seem a bit of a faff, but it is worth it as it really is rather very yummy indeedy.
