Method
Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed pan, add sliced onion and fry till golden. Add Ferns' Xacuti Curry Paste and water. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Add the chicken pieces, cover and cook for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, dry roast the desiccated coconut in a large pan, stirring continuously till golden. Grind this in a food processor with water to make a paste. Add to cooked chicken. Season with salt and pepper and serve with steamed rice or roti.
Chicken may be substituted with chick peas and 2 teaspoons peanuts (ground) may be added for an extra nutty flavour.
