3 pounds chicken, cut into pieces


Water


Blade of mace, or a pinch ground mace


1 teaspoon salt


4 tablespoons butter


2 tablespoons chopped parsley


1 tablespoon lemon juice


1 lemon, peel grated


1 cup broth in which the chicken was cooked


Freshly ground pepper


1/2 cup heavy cream


1 lemon, cut into very thin slices, for garnish





Gently poach the chicken in enough water to barely cover the pieces, together with the mace and salt. When done, cool to touch; remove the meat from the bones and cut into bite-size pieces. Melt the butter, add the chicken pieces, stir and fry for a few minutes. Add parsley, lemon juice, grated peel, and broth. Add some freshly ground, preferably white, pepper. Gently simmer for 10 minutes. Add cream and reheat the sauce but do not boil. If desired, the sauce could be further thickened with cornstarch or flour, but it is very good this way. Garnish your dish with the lemon slices. Serve with boiled potatoes, a mixture of peas and snow peas, and a salad.
1. In a large bowl, mix together the ingredients for the marinade, adding the chicken. Fold the marinade with the meat until it is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.





2. When ready to cook, begin the sauce. Heat the oil in a large pan or wok and fry the onions for 7 minutes or until they are lightly browned.





3. Add the turmeric, cumin and salt, followed by the fenugreek, if using, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Tip in the tomatoes and cook for 3 minutes or until the onion mixture becomes quite thick.





4. Stir in the butter, then the chicken and marinade, and cook on a low heat for 10 minutes or until the chicken is done.





5. Serve the curry hot with naan bread and an onion and green leaf salad.
I have yet to make this one but it is in my allrecipes.com recipe box and sounds good
