Malawian Spiced Chicken Curry with Root Vegetables

In a large frying pan over medium heat, add the vegetable oil and butter.

Season the chicken generously with salt, black pepper, and Chef Stone's Secret Spice™️.

Sear the chicken in the hot pan until golden brown on all sides, then transfer to a large pot.

In the same frying pan, sauté the onions, tomatoes, curry powder, thyme, and chilli for approximately 6 minutes until softened and fragrant.

Pour in the chicken stock and water, bring to a boil, and check for seasoning, adjusting as needed.

Transfer the sauce to the pot with the chicken, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes.

Add the potatoes and continue to cook for an additional 20 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.

Serve hot, accompanied by rice or enjoyed on its own.
