Thermomix Coconut Chicken Curry Recipe - ThermoFun

January 23, 2014

Jump to recipe

Our family loves curries - so this Thermomix Coconut Chicken Curry Recipe is always a roaring success at dinner time. I really think the secret to this curry is using my ThermoFun Curry Blend which is just so much more flavoursome than the commercial curry powder.

This recipe was inspired from a magazine I read about 6 months ago that was all about curries, so I have a few more up my sleeve to try. YUM!

Does your family love a hot and spicy curry or a mild curry?

Ok so my boys n hubby all hate coconut I had tried with evaporated milk but it always seemed to runny. Lately I've been doing curries with yogurt so I tried that tonight with this recipe n it worked perfectly n no grumbles from the boys. Lol!☺ Thanks love how I can adjust these recipes n they still work.

What a delicious curry! I'm so happy it makes a generous serve...means I can have it for dinner tomorrow again?. I like to keep a little crunch to my snow peas so I put them in the bottom of the thermoserver and poured the chicken curry on top of them. While my rice steamed, the snow peas had a chance to soften a little with the heat of the curry. Yum!

  Thank you Tania I'm pleased you enjoyed it. Great idea with the snow peas just being added to the Thermoserver. I too like mine with a bit of crunch. :)

I ABSOLUTELY love this recipe and did have intentions of putting some in the freezer, but that never happened as scoffed the lot! lol
As I like my chili thick and strong, I made your homemade coconut cream (YUM!) and used 120 grams of green curry paste and 350 grams coconut cream! YUM YUM YUM and would highlight recommend the recipe!

The whole family including Miss A 9 years and Mstr B 6 years loved this. Homemade coconut cream was really quick and easy and tasted just like a can of coconut cream. Thanks Leonie.

Nice mild curry for kids to enjoy. Next time might try adding bit of curry powder. Did use garam masala instead of your spice mix.

Hi there.... tried this today as I wanted to convert a very similar dish I would normally cook on the stove to the thermomix and found this one to be simple and relative. It was absolutely delicious and chicken tender. I did not use the tomatoes however as I like the taste of the coconut to come through. It was a hit with all of us!! Tasty without being too Spicy. If you like it hot just add fresh chilli and fresh coriander as I did directly on my dish !!!
Thank you !! The vegi's were perfectly cooked.. Will definitely use again (Y)

Sounds delicious… you could also grate the ginger in the Thermo bowl before you start. I hate grating ginger! Do you find the chicken sometimes gets stuck in the blades?

  Thank you for pointing out that I had "grated" ginger in the list of ingredients. I have now amended the recipe - as the TM chops it up in the first step with the garlic etc. Yes the chicken can get stuck on the blades which can be annoying. Make sure you cut the chicken into big cubes too - so the chicken doesn't fall apart too much.

Loved this. Made it as per your recipe but added 1tsp of curry powder.
Perfect. Hit with the kids and adults. Even baby had a little bit :-)
Thanks. Will be doing this one again.

Tried this curry for the first time tonight and got a thumbs up from all the family. Very flavoursome yet mild, so kid friendly. Chop up a small chilli in your serve if you like it spiced up a bit.

Thanks, I'm new to thermomixing :)
This tasted a bit like an English curry to me, a similar taste to my grandmothers curried eggs so took me back which was nice but not a fave for me.
However was great to try something I haven't tried yet and I know I can use it as a base but try using different spices to get the flavour I'm after.
In fairness I have to mention that I hate coriander so I omitted it from the recipe so that probably totally altered the taste.
If you enjoy a mild curry then this could be great for you I think.

To make the coconut cream, do you soak desicated coconut or coconut from the shell? If from the shell do you remove the brown bit that sticks to the coconut when removed from shell. Many thanks.

  Hi Lisa, I use desiccated coconut to do my coconut cream and milk.

Hi Leonie, thanks for this recipe which I tried tonight. I found I had to divide in half as there was too much in the bowl and as I like my veges cooked I had to take them out and microwave. Next time I will try half quantities as I am only feeding myself and there is heaps there.
Very tasty :)

    What a pleasant surprise! I don't like coriander or ginger but loved this.
    I made it low fodmap / fructose friendly by leaving out the onion and garlic and using garlic infused oil instead of EVOO. I also used green beans instead of snow peas. I used 4 carrots and 1 large stalk of celery. I used 1/2 Tbsp curry and 1 Tbsp garam marsala.
    The only changes I will try next time is parsley instead of coriander (yeah I know, I'm nuts) and maybe a bit of cornflower to thicken the sauce a bit.
    YUMMO!! Thanks!

We love curries, well I love curries, my children 4 and 7 still are not allowed to these flavors, here in Spain we don´t cook spicy, but I love spicy food, so I like both hot and medium, Thanks for the recipe!!!
