I like potatoes in my chicken curry. If you think it is too much "starch", here's what you can try. The healthy but not-as-nice version. Apples, yes. Hahaha....AP-POOLS...as how some kids pronounced it. This is a bookmarked recipe from a Chinese TV cooking show (in Taiwan). I'm trying it for Bookmark Recipes, hosting baton is back to the creator/host Ruth's Kitchen Experiments this week.I cooked this one day...for the reason that I had apples and no potatoes at that time. This dish obviously targeted at young kids since apples will bring some sweetness and a little (really a little) tangy factor into an otherwise spicy dish.
Hmmm....don't kids like potatoes? Maybe it was the parents' idea to sneak in apples into a kid's dish. I don't know since I don't cook for kids. I'm just trying to say...if I were a kid, I would like potatoes in my chicken curry, please.
But this sure look like potatoes in curry...

I like potatoes in my curry too ;-)) But apple sounds good to me too. Anyway, they look so yummy
ReplyDeleteWah liao. Never heard of apples in chicken curry. Must try and surprise mum with it. She'll be so impressed!! Thanks....
ReplyDeleteHaha! I'm one who don't put potatoes in my curry. My chicken curry always plain with only chicken.
ReplyDeleteI tried once and hubby says no more fruits in curry allowed. lol
ReplyDeleteI strongly encourage you to submit this to our Potato Ho Down Roundup!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is HK-style curry, I think. And the potatoes in those are the best part! However, these apples has certainly piqued my interest... even though they won't be as good as the potatoes. =) How about putting both in?
ReplyDeleteHmm..interesting, apples in curry. The more I read blogs, the more I realize how un-adventurous cook I am!! :D I do too love potatoes in my curry.
ReplyDeletewow that is so creative! I've never had apples in curry before.hehe definitely healthier, but I LOVE potatoes in curry..hehe yours look great as usual ;)
ReplyDeleteYou are such a creative cook! I like this healthy version of chicken curry. Tks for your sharing.
ReplyDeleteI prefer potatoes too, hehe ... but it still looks good :)
ReplyDeleteI never try apple curry but never mind apple season is here now .I'm going applepicking soon.I should try your version apple curry chicken!!where is coconut milk??I keep looking high and low but.....
ReplyDeleteIt might sound weird in the beginning that you're using actual apples in the curry,
ReplyDeleteBut I just realized that some of my favorite Japanese premade curry sauce do use apples as one of their main ingredients!!
(Just never thought that people will actually use apple chunks in their curry! How fun!)
This is interesting! If use potatoes, i prefer those from Holland.
ReplyDeleteI am a potato gal too. But apple curry would make such a great party dish, wouldn't it?
ReplyDeletePotatoes in curry is so ... ordinary.
Adding apples into curry. That's will make it taste like Jap curry right?
ReplyDeleteI have a few packets of Jap curry with Apple at home ;-)
Makes me crave for curry now....
Just arrived from For the Love of Cooking blog and thrilled I did. What an interesting concept. It really makes one think about the many subtle uses for apples.
ReplyDeleteI'm "grabbing" this link for my National Apple Month post which I hope to be getting to in a few days. Thanks for sharing...
I wouldnt have guess those are apples!! Bonus marks for being creative..
ReplyDeletebut I still prefer potatoes =)
when we first saw your name we knew your apple curry surely will appear soon !
ReplyDeleteas will many more exotikas but hey good taste is new taste , as for greener grass yonder
I often have apple curry with Indian food, but I seldom actually put apples into my curries. This recipe is a great reminder to cook with apples more often!
ReplyDeleteWow ... that certainly sounds interesting. I usually eat Apple after my curry chicken!
ReplyDelete3 to 5 mins is enough time to soften the Apple? Must try it next time.
oh, oh...this looks good for the weather we're having now! i love curry!
ReplyDeleteApples in curry!? That's unique! Nice meh?
ReplyDeletei've never had a curry dish with apples, but like you, i like potatoes in mine! i just had curry for lunch! it was fantastic!
ReplyDeleteInteresting use of apples. Although, I love potatoes in curry, I am trying to reduce the starch intake in my diet, so this is going to be a must try. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteHow is it? Do you prefer potatoes or apples?
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting idea, though!
I've not heard of using apples to cook curry, but it sure sounds really interesting. I love my curry with lots of potatoes though. :-)
ReplyDeleteWow, apples in curry is such an amazing idea! Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what apples in curry would taste like. Would a mix of apples and potatoes give a different taste?
ReplyDeleteIn fact, we could even transfer the ingredients of ABC soup - potatoes, carrots and radish - into a curry! ABC Curry, anyone? :D
Using apples in curry instead of potatoes sounds like a nice way to mix things up every once in a while.
ReplyDeleteReally mind blowing pics....Humm..
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing...
