Okay so between Chocolate and Curries I think that I would be set for life! This thermomix chicken and peanut yoghurt curry delivers on the curry part (you just need to type chocolate in the search for something yummy to accompany this dish!) An adaptation of an old recipe magazine I had laying around before I owned my Thermomix. Yes I had day dreams about being a MasterChef!!! ;)
The response from the family – Yes PLEASE! So another family favourite! :) To them I am a masterchef :) oh wait - maybe just to myself!
I really encourage you to make the ThermoFun Curry Blend for this recipe which is just so much more flavoursome than the commercial curry powder.

Really easy and tasty curry even the kids had seconds
I added some peas and green beans to it for a bit of green.
Definitely will make again

AmandaT says
This curry is so simple, quick and delicious. Perfect for dinner served with cauliflower rice if following a low carb lifestyle, especially following a good gym workout.
thermofun says
Oh thanks for the tip Amanda :D I am sure the Low carb community would appreciate it :D
Cathy says
I like to use chicken breast for this, but I use my butterfly to avoid the dreaded shredded chicken.
Rhiannon says
Delicious!! Ready in no time. Didn't have any capsicum so I added carrot. I only remembered to butterfly when cooking the chicken in the second part of the recipe. I think the chicken would have been quite shredded without it. Oh and I added Babas curry powder 2 tablespoons! Quick and delicious!
thermofun says
Thanks Rhiannon I'm pleased you enjoyed it. :)
If using chicken breast the meat definitely does shred as it is a softer meat than thigh. I use thigh and cut in large cubes and have no shredding that way. :)

Made this tonight I didn't have any plain yoghurt so used coconut milk instead. Still tasted delicious.
Denise says
Gorgeous dish, my hubby and I gobbled it down in no time. I didn't make the thermofun curry blend as I decided to make this one last minute, so just used the Keens curry powder I had in the pantry...and even this tasted great! I can only imagine how good it would be if I had the thermofun curry blend! Thnx for the recipe, will definitely be making this one again!
thermofun says
Thanks Denise. Yes definitely make the curry blend next time - it takes the dish to a whole new level! :)
Cam says
Made this for dinner tonight and served with cauliflower rice. Upped the veges as only had 500g chicken. Was a big hit and definite keeper.
Andreia says
I've made this a few times and is always so delicious. Tonight I have added, coconut cream and milk (tin of each), we had no chicken in the house so have done with sweet potato, potato and lentils. Smells great.
Joanne says
Room mate and I loved it but my ten year old didn't :-(
Janene Pearson says
