2. In a karahi or large pot, start by adding two tablespoons of oil on medium heat. Combine all ingredients for curry paste in a bowl and mix well. Add to pot and reduce heat to low-medium.
3. Cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring regularly, adding a splash of water as necessary and scraping the bottom of the pot to prevent anything from burning.
4. Add chicken and mix ingredients well, cover with lid and stir occasionally for 20-30 minutes. When the majority of the liquid has reduced, add 1 ½ cups of water and the potato. Cover pot again and summer for 30 minutes. Adjust seasoning, if necessary, prior to serving.
