10 Yummy Curry Recipes

Category: Lonumedhu Lists

 

Here in the Maldives, curry is an indispensable part of our gastronomical lives. The delicious concoction of spices is always there for us, whether it’s for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Over the past months we’ve featured a number of curry recipes here on Lonumedhu and below are our favourites.

 

Butter Chicken

Making butter chicken at home is surprisingly easy. If you want the flavours of the spices to really combine with the chicken, marinate the chicken for longer.

 

Kandu Kukulhu

Kandu Kukulhu is the most special of all Maldivian tuna curries. Even the name implies it; it’s the chicken of the sea. Our recipe turned out really delicious, and it was really hot too. So do cut down on the chillies if you want it to be milder.

 

Kulhi Riha

The key to a good Kulhi Riha (Maldivian hot fish curry) is of course in the tuna. You have to use the freshest one you can find so that the curry does not taste overly fishy. When making Kulhi Riha we actually prefer to use either bilamagu (bilimbi) or sour mangoes. But since it’s not so easy to find those items all the time, we used tomato paste instead. Also, add as much chilli as you like; some might find our recipe a bit mild.

 

Chicken Liver Curry

We think cumin and tomato paste really do complement the sweet taste of chicken liver. Just one thing to be a bit careful about when making this; chicken liver tends to taste bitter when overcooked, so do keep and eye on that. 

 

Chilli Boava

Some might find our version of Chilli Boava to be too mild on the chilli, so just put in some more if you need to.

 

Muguriha

Muguriha or dhal curry, the staple that goes so well with almost everything. Our version is a slightly liquidy one which you can have ‘modegen,’ but if you wish for a drier version, just cut down on some of the water.

 

Kulhi Mas

We can eat kulhimas all day long! Our recipe is super quick and simple. Feel free to kick up the chili a notch.

 

Tomato Chicken Curry

As you can tell from its name, this tomato chicken curry is made with lots and lots of tomatoes. During the cooking, the tomatoes soften and melt, giving the curry a really nice flavour and texture.

 

Hanaakuri Mas

Making Hanaakuri Mas is an aromatic process as it involves the roasting and grinding of whole spices; we love watching them sizzle and pop. Our version maybe too hot for some, so remember to adjust the chilli to your preference.

 

Mas Riha

We wanted to create a fish curry that resembles the traditional taste of the Maldivian curries. However, our version is rather mild. But do feel free to add in as much chilli as you want to.
