Directions

  1. * Note: Available at Indian, Southeast Asian and Latin American markets and at many supermarkets.
  2. Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium heat. Add in onions and saute/fry till golden brown, about 15 min. Add in ginger and garlic; saute/fry 1 minute. Add in curry, cumin and cinnamon; saute/fry till fragrant, about 1 minute. Add in flour, then yogurt and tomato paste, whisking till sauce is smooth, about 1 minute. Add in broth and applesauce. Bring to boil. Reduce heat; simmer till sauce thickens slightly, stirring occasionally, about 30 min. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cold slightly. Cover and chill. Bring to simmer before continuing.)
  3. Add in chicken and peas to sauce. Simmer till chicken is almost cooked through, about 3 min. Add in lowfat sour cream and coconut lowfat milk. Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir till chicken is cooked through and sauce thickens sufficient to coat spoon, about 3 min (don't boil). Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl. Garnish with cilantro sprigs.
  4. Place rice, chutney, bananas, mangoes, coconut and peanuts in separate bowls. Serve alongside curry.
  5. This recipe yields 8 to 10 servings.
  6. Comments: Serve the curry with steamed white rice and Indian beer, and make a stop at an Indian restaurant to get some samosas - savory filled pastries - to pass as appetizers, and the flatbread called naan to sop up the curry sauce. For dessert, how about assorted teas and a carrot cake
