Jalfrezi which essentially means 'stir fry' is not only a very 'broad sheet' in curry terms, it also happens to be one of my favourite Indian curries. Tonight's Chicken Jalfrezi was loosely based on a recipe from Andhra Pradesh (got part of it from utube, I think?) and has an unusual 'pre fry' stage for the chicken (this works well in other chicken dishes where marinating is not possible / desirable). In tonights version, I swapped the usual fried mixed peppers for pre-roasted whole peppers (plus some roasted chillies) which gives a very distinctive sweet intense flavour. As usual with my Jalfrezi(s), the final dish was pretty (very) hot !!! - chicken was thigh meat, mix of on and off the bone.

Just to add that the 'pre fry' stage is simply frying the chicken until just turning golden brown, adding 1 tsp of curry powder mix (or just turmeric) and frying for 1 - 2 minutes more. Then just drain the chicken and set aside until required.
