SugarRoti Chicken Potato Curry, or murghanu shaak/sabji, is derived from a timeless Indian (Gujarati) blend. Using only 5 fresh ingredients, 5 steps and our SugarRoti Chicken Nu Spice blend, you can cook a delicious, healthy meal for 4. This is a contemporary and healthy update to the traditional Gujarati chicken and potato curry, but you can also use the flavors and layers of spice in our SugarRoti Chicken Nu spice blend to create a delicious butter chicken or chicken tikka masala.
Enjoy over rice, quinoa, couscous, with a roti (also known as chapati – a round flatbread from India) or by itself.
