Creamy Coconut Chicken Curry
"I started this dish with a whole chicken that I cut into 8 pieces, the thighs, the drumsticks, the wings and the breasts. If you are not comfortable cutting up a whole chicken, you can ask your butcher to do it for you or you can use all thighs or all drumsticks. I have kept the skin on the chicken but you can remove it if you prefer. I personally find that leaving the skin on, adds a lot of flavour to your dish."
