Although there are regional variations, the basic recipe is always the same: soft chicken chunks cooked in a flavorful mixture of yoghurt, tomatoes, onions, and warming spices. Sunflower oil is frequently used in kitchens due to its neutral flavour and high smoke point, making it an ideal choice for cooking this curry.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sunflower oil&#8217;s high smoke point makes it perfect for frying and saut\u00e9ing, making it a great choice for cooking. It is flavourless, light, and high in good unsaturated fats and vitamin E. This promotes heart health while highlighting the inherent flavour of spices and ingredients in recipes.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>&nbsp;Ingredients:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>500g chicken (bone-in or boneless), cut into pieces<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 tbsp sunflower oil<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 large onion, finely sliced<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 tsp ginger-garlic paste<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2 medium tomatoes, chopped<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1\/2 cup plain yoghurt (whisked)<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tsp turmeric powder<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tsp red chilli powder (adjust to taste)<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1.5 tsp ground coriander<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tsp garam masala<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Salt to taste<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1\/2 to 1 cup water (depending on desired curry thickness)<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fresh cilantro (coriander leaves), chopped \u2013 for garnish<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cooking Method:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Heat sunflower oil<\/strong> in a deep pot or skillet over medium heat.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add sliced onions<\/strong> and saut\u00e9 until golden brown (about 8\u201310 minutes).<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stir in ginger-garlic paste<\/strong> and cook for 1\u20132 minutes until the raw smell disappears.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add the chicken pieces and saut\u00e9 until they are <\/strong>lightly browned on all sides.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mix in dry spices<\/strong>: turmeric, red chilli powder, coriander powder, and salt.

Sunflower oil keeps the curry light and nutritious while also allowing the spices to flourish without dominating their aroma.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This dish is great for family dinners, seasonal get-togethers, or regular comfort meals and goes well with roti, naan, or basmati rice. This chicken curry unites people around the table and transcends boundaries with each bite, telling a tale of warmth, tradition, and flavour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At VIE, we produce 100% pure sunflower oil, which is a high-quality, versatile oil that is extracted from Sunflower using traditional methods.
