Comments

This sauce can also be used on chicken, fish or rice. Most kids will eat it if you go light on the curry. It is a brilliant yellow color which seems to appeal to them. For dinner guest it is elegant and goes beautifully with a oil and vinegarette salad. You can use all chicken stock if you don't have wine. The beuty of this dish is that most of the ingredients can be found in your cupboard and it can be made within ten minutes.
