What is Massaman Curry?

I love massaman curry! It is seriously so delicious! Hailing from India, it has a sweet taste (don’t worry, there’s no heat!) and the chicken and vegetables make it a very hearty meal! The sauce for this recipe is made from scratch and it’s so simple and easy! But don’t let that fool you on the taste. This dish will definitely impress all of your family and friends because it looks and tastes like it’s straight from a restaurant. And if you love this recipe then you should try out this Slow Cooker Chicken Tikka Masala too! Massaman curry is different than red, yellow, and green curry. You can tell it apart because it’s the curry that has peanuts in it! In this recipe, I used smooth peanut butter that I added into the sauce which is what makes it so creamy! This recipe is delicious and easy and you should for sure add it to your weekly menu! It only takes about 25 minutes to put together which makes it perfect for those on the go, busy nights. In fact, make some homemade naan to go with it and that will take it to the next level!

Ingredients for Massaman Curry

Besides the massaman curry paste, you probably already have most of the ingredients in your kitchen! See the recipe card below for a list of exact ingredient measurements.

Olive oil: You can use vegetable if that’s all that you have on hand. Boneless skinless chicken breasts: I sliced these very thin when I was cutting them up.Onion: When cutting it up, dice it into small pieces so that it blends well. Potatoes: I like to use Yukon gold potatoes because of their flavor! For this recipe you will peel and cube them.Carrots: These cooked carrots really add to the heartiness of the recipe! Coconut milk: When you buy your coconut milk, make sure that the cans are full fat. Massaman curry paste: Look for this in the international aisle of the store. Usually near the Asian products.Garlic: Any recipe that calls for garlic will have me asking for more!Ginger paste: The ginger paste has a better texture and flavor than the ginger spice. Fish sauce: Just using a little bit of this gives this massaman curry a unique flavor!Lime juice: You can use lime juice from a bottle or a fresh lime. Whichever is easiset!Peanut butter: This is what helps to make the sauce so creamy and delicious!Brown sugar: Don’t leave this out! It makes the recipe come together with a sweet and deep taste.

If you have 30 minutes to spare then you have time to make this recipe! It’s so easy and delicious, you won’t be able to resist it!

Make it vegetarian: Not a fan of meat? Take out the chicken and add in more vegetables instead! Try green beans, mini corn, zucchini or cauliflower.Change the meat: If you love this dish and want to cook it again but want to change it up then the meat is a great place to start! Try using pork, beef or shimp instead of chicken!

Refrigerate: Store your curry and rice in seperate sealed, airtight containers. Put them in your fridge and they will last in there for 3-4 days!Freezer: If you want to make this ahead of time and freeze it for a later meal, it’s easy! Once it has cooled then place it in a sealed airtight containter. Write the date on it and put it in your freezer. It will last up to 3 months.Reheat: If it’s frozen then thaw it in your refrigerator overnight. Once it’s thawed then you can either reheat it on the stove or in the microwave until it’s heated through! Serve with fresh jasmine rice.
