KaChin Chicken Curry

Kachine Chicken Curry is a famous indigenous Kachin curry. It is also one of my favorite curries. The chicken is cooked with praew leaves. Some recipes use bamboo shoot and the result is a nice blend of sour and spicy curry. It goes well with a bowl of white rice.

Ingredients

• 2 large chicken legs and thighs (cut into 1cm pieces)
• 2 pickled bamboo shoot, sliced
• 3 garlic cloves, chopped
• 1/2 tablespoon ginger, chopped

Pork Curry with Pone-Yay-Gyi

This is a very original Myanmar recipe cooked with Pone-Yay-Gyi paste, a traditional Myanmar ingredient.
