Thai potato and chicken curry recipe
This recipe is a one pot wonder – ideal to use up veggies you might have left over from the weekly shop, (mine are just a suggestion) but Maris Pipers are key in this dish. Then simply add some chicken and a few spices.
If your children aren’t familiar with spicy food this is an ideal introduction, as it gives a mild to medium strength curry.
