Notes
In order to garner to a rich fiery red color curry use red ripe tomatoes and chilies. Red color of the curry is characteristic of this dish. But the yellow color chicken curry is not uncommon either. The difference is that the red tomato paste or red chilies maybe used at bare minimum levels. in moderation.
Omit fresh red chilies if not available. However a good substitute is Hot Chili Garlic paste or Homemade Schezwan sauce.
Use which ever curry powder is available locally. Though Nigerian curry powder is the best for an authentic taste.
Adjust the amount of curry powder, salt, thyme and oregano in curry as per individual requirement.
