21st Oct 2024

Fused by Fiona Uyema has launched its latest healthy cooking innovation - a delicious Chinese curry sauce option created after years of recipe tasting. Here are four tasty recipes to try out this week.

Fused Chinese chicken curry
Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 1 tub of Fused premium Chinese curry sauce
  • preferred oil, for frying
  • 4 chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 onion, peeled and sliced
  • ½ each of red, yellow, and green peppers, cut into cubes
  • freshly steamed rice, to serve

 

Method

  1. Heat oil in a frying pan or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the onion and chicken pieces. Fry until the chicken is nearly cooked through, adding a splash of water to keep the chicken moist.
  3. Add the mixed peppers and continue frying until the chicken is fully cooked.
  4. In a separate saucepan, prepare Fused premium Chinese curry sauce as per the packet instructions. Mix one tub of curry mix with 800ml of water, bring to a boil, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  5. Add the chicken, onion, and peppers to the curry sauce. Mix well and continue to simmer over low-medium heat. If you prefer a thinner sauce, add more water.
  6. Serve with freshly steamed rice.

Serves 4

Ingredients

Method
