Garlic (or lahsun in Hindi) is reputed to have amazing health benefits and in Hinduism is believed to be warming and stimulating - making this the perfect meal for the colder months. Combined with lots of chillies (mirchi), this flavoursome curry is strictly for garlic and chilli lovers only!
I’ve had the curry legend books for years but recently bought the original book and found this stunning recipe at the back. Absolutely fabulous with coriander raita. A warming curry just great for current damp weather and cold/flu season.
Isn't it lovely to discover a new favourite dish? We're so pleased to hear how much you're loving this winter warmer at the moment!

You can't go wrong with chilli and garlic

Unfortunately, this recipe comes across like a fairly generic chicken curry, which has a similar taste to cheap one's I've made in the past with pre-made curry powder from the supermarktet. Whilst not inedible, it had an overpowering taste of lemon and I would recommend reducing the amount of lemon juice added at the end.

Absolutely loved this. So nice to make onion bhaji. The vegetable rice was lovely. We will definitely make this again.

First time using my favourite Christmas present from this year: made garlic chilli chicken with lemon rice and naans. All of it tasted absolutely amazing - especially the naans - so think this book will definitely become a favourite!

While this curry didn't feel as authentic as the others in the book (I think the lack of an indian name didn't help this), it tasted great! Garlic is always a winner in my book.

My friend has been asking me to upload for ages and here is the dish I had a hand in. Garlic chilli chicken 4/5 always room for improvement but very tasty

Made Garlic Chilli Chicken (with Quorn replacing chicken as for a vegetarian), Chicken Korma, Naan bread and Red and White Onion Bhaji's. Went down very well and all of it would have been eaten if we hadn't made sure to save portions for later, even the 9 month old loved the korma with some yogurt mixed in.

Chilli and garlic... what's not to love?! The recipe gets the spice level spot on, a lovely tomato sauce that's tingling but not too overpowering. Plus its a one-pot wonder, ideal for Saturday Night treat tea!

Amazing spice box, highlight was definitely the Bhajis!

Great recipe, dead easy and the added fried garlic at the end gives it a nice flavour.

I made a mistake with the marinade, added 2tsp mirchi to the chicken, so I added the missing 2tsp methi to the sauce. Was a very good curry, though hotter than intended, I loved it.
