Chef’s tip: You should always try to use authentic spices rather than a ready-made paste or powder. It’s easy to find chicken curry ingredients in Asian grocery stores or large general stores. Feel free to experiment with different blends. It is one of the most experimented spice combinations in history, and it is a good idea to become familiar with spices so you can make your own tasty recipes. Also, if you run out of a spice, you will know which other spice is similar in aroma and flavor.
