Margie’s grandmother Austin made a delicious curry.  Not authentic, but delicious.  Usually out of leftover lamb gravy and diced lamb.  This is an even more “cheater” curry.  This is one of those dishes that is even better the next day.

Ingredients:

• canned or packaged chicken gravy (You want about a cup per person)
• chicken meat (at least 1/4 pound per person) (the Costco chicken is great)
• curry powder – at least 1 Tab per pound of meat
• powdered mustard – 1 tsp per pound of meat
• powdered ginger – 1 tsp per pound of meat
• butter – enough to saute the spices

Directions:

1. Melt the butter in the bottom of a large pot.
2. Add the mustard, ginger and curry powder..
3. Saute for a couple of minutes.
4. Add the gravy.
5. Stir to mix in the seasoning.
6. Taste and correct – might need more curry powder, might need a little garlic or salt.
7. Add the chicken.
8. Simmer for 10 – 15 minutes.
9. Serve over hot rice with condiments.

Condiments:  chopped peanuts, diced white onion, chopped green onions, shredded coconut, raisins, crushed pineapple (drained), diced bacon, chutney, French fried onions
