| Laksa Paste |
The easiest chicken curry, made possible with a store-bought laksa paste which is available in Asian markets or online. It takes 20 minutes to make chiefly because the chicken was tenderized ahead of time. After cutting the chicken, boneless and skinless chicken thighs in this case, the bite-sized pieces are soaked at room temperature for 30 minutes in water mixed with a teaspoon each of salt and baking soda. After draining, the chicken must be washed in several changes of water to remove all traces of baking soda. This makes the chicken or any meat incredibly soft and tender. Substitute chicken with beef, lamb, pork, shrimp, tofu or paneer.
