A Poet's Way of Cooking Chicken Curry
Before I start with my mouth-watering cookery
Let me first prepare all the things necessary
Mis-en-place, I need to keep that in my memory
Everything is in place and everything should be ready
I will now begin with the important ingredients
Garlic, onion, ginger and pepper are some of the components
Curry powder, butter, salt, sugar for fine enhancement
And of course choice-cut chicken as the primary element
Let me not forget to incorporate some veggies
Eggplant and green beans make curry truly tasty
Adding up coconut milk creates it a little bit sultry
So let me start cooking because I am now ready
In a hot skillet, I am putting an amount of butter
Next is to sauté garlic, onion, and ginger
I stir it constantly until onion is a bit clear
I smell the aroma to let myself feel better
Next to do is to drop in the choice-cut chicken
I put curry powder and black pepper to smoothen
Stir it well so that mixture will be even
Let it simmer in order flavor will be heightened
After few minutes of waiting and simmering
I pour in the coconut milk and veggies to make it more appealing
Then blend it well and let it stand boiling
In few moments, chicken curry will be appetizing
After that, l will check its body and color
Some salt and sugar to enhance the flavour
Finally, cooking it with love is an important factor
Then I am all set to serve it with pleasure
Have you heard of someone who cooks chicken curry
who not only cook with his heart but with artistry?
Well, you do not really have to worry
Because the person I am referring to… is me
