My mum would make this AMAZING chicken soup for us as kids. It took a while but the result was soooo good and was perfect for a cold, wintery evening. I decided to take this recipe and revamp it a touch to make it a bit quicker to make and also I removed some of the more high energy carbohydrates that were in there too. The result is a healthy and very nutritious soup that will satisfy!
One of my favourite things about staying in Myanmar was the food. Oh. Em. Gee. The food. The first dish I tried upon arriving in Yangon was a Chicken Pumpkin Curry. They said it wouldn’t be hot and spicy and I did not trust them. I was so wrong. Thus – my love for this dish was discovered. I went hunting for this dish and I believe I found the best version of it in a small restaurant in Bagan.
Curry often has been considered to be quite fatty and not good for the waistline – let me assure you that this recipe has nothing but fantastic, healthy ingredients.
This recipe is a quick and easy recipe with a slightly middle eastern flavour. Chick Peas are such a versatile ingredient and they give a very distinct and appealing favour to everything you add them to so it makes sense to let them be a main flavouring to this chicken recipe! When you mix the steamed veges into that sauce – DELICIOUS!
