    Put baby spinach in thermo server and pour cooked chicken and leave for 5 minutes, then stir gently.

Tip

If I have left over roasted sweet potato I will add this to the curry.
Also a nice curry with sausages but my family likes the sausages cooked in the frying pan so after I have added the coconut cream I cook the curry for 7 mins instead of 15 mins and put cooked sausages in the thermo server and pour the curry sauce over the top.

    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    This recipe was so easy to make and deliciously tasty! I omitted the chilli as the sweet chilli sauce provided enough spice for me and the kids. Have made it 2 times now and will become a regular meal for our house.

    Thank you yum. I would definitely use thigh fillet as the breast is little tough. Will definitely make again. I used baba meat curry paste

    A new favourite for our family. Second time making it I cheated and peeled the
    lemon. I put in extra ginger too. Added chicken stock with peanut butter. I made 2 batches and it fed around 16 people with rice! Everyone loved it.

    I made this today nad found it quite tasty but needed more oomph, I would make it again but would keep the chilli seeds and not zest the lemon before putting it in. If I was introducing curry to kids, this is the one I would use. Many thanks for posting,

    I just made this recipe with some leftover steamed chicken and the result was delicious. I added the chicken with the coconut cream and used speed 1...adjusted the cooking time to 7 minutes and added the baby spinach for the last minute. Thanks for a great recipe 😊

    Really delicious, so many flavours. Just wondering if you use the zest of a whole lemon or just a strip of zest? Also, when do you add the stock? I nearly forgot to add it as it's not mentioned in the method. Thanks for sharing a great recipe. YumLove
