Twelve Boy Curry


I have posted this recipe before, but I thought that it needed to re-visit the front page. A few months ago, my mommy and I whipped this up to please our hubbs. I wouldn't have been able to do it without her, she is amazing. (Okay, so you CAN do it alone...this meal is SUPER easy, like 20 minute meal...but it is so much more fun with an amazing momma!) It was sooo yummy, even for us non-spicy lovers.

6 Tbs. butter
1 cup minced onion
4-5 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup flour
2 Tbs. curry powder (this is quite potent)
1 tsp. dry mustard
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. paprika
dash of cayenne pepper
1 1/4 cup beef stock
1 cup light cream (or 1/2 cream 1/2 milk)
3 Tbs. catsup
1 3-pound chicken, stewed, cut into bite-size pieces
brown rice

Condiments:
celery
coconut
bacon
peanuts
orange marmalade
boiled egg
raisins

Melt butter in a large skillet. Add onion and garlic and cook over medium heat until onion is limp. Combine all of the dry ingredients and add to the onion mixture, stirring over low heat until blended. Slowly add beef stock and cream and stir until smooth. Add catsup. Cook for 2 minutes then add chicken and continue to heat for about 5 minutes. Do not bring to a complete boil. Serve over hot buttered rice with any, or better yet, all of the condiments.

  1. I love curry! It looks so yummy.

    I can't wait for you to join the DBers, it will be so fun to have a friend I know doing it too.

    Hope you get a sunny weekend to go golfing! We've been getting rainy Wednesdays, the days that Aaron has his softball games. :(

  6. I know this is 10+ years old, yet I feel compelled to correct a misunderstanding about this curry’s name. All, “Twelve Boy” means is that there are12 condiments to accompany the curry. As written, this would be a seven boy curry.
