How to make Chinese chicken curry using Mayflower Curry Sauce Mix. See Kin demonstrate how easy it is to use Mayflower Curry Sauce Mix when he cooks up a Chinese style chicken curry. Can't beat it! www.kingasia.co.uk
I've used this curry mix for some time now and if i say it myself i make a fantastic chinese curry with Mayflower mix i add water chestnuts and bamboo shoots ...i make up batches for my three sons ....keeps them happy 😊😊
really fantastic. I've tried to make Chinese chicken curry dozens of times over the last 10yrs, and while I've had a few decent batches, I've never produced anything that's close to rivaling a Chinese restaurant. I've now followed this recipe about 4 times in the last 3 weeks, and it's fantastic - it absolutely rivals my local Chinese and is far less expensive (and rewarding) to do it yourself. I'm a Brit living in the US and we don't have the Mayflower curry, but I've found the S&B Golden Japanese curry mixes found in the US to be a perfect alternative.Thanks so much for posting this!
Wow never ever have I been impressed by a homemade curry.But everyone of my family ate it ,and said it tasted excactly like a takeaway,and i agree.Got mine from farm foods,and it was the best 89 pence i ever spent.Thank you
Anazing basic recepie i followed and it made it exactly the same as the takeaway thank you so much! Im never paying for a takeaway chicken curry again.
Just made this for the first time& followed exactly as video..( I did add some sliced mushroom though) It turned out fantastic.. Just like a takeaway you woul buy.. Would never have thought about poaching the chicken in the water first, before adding to wok.. I worked out measurements for ingredients for a single serving as I live on my own and it was the perfect amount.. 90gr chicken 1/2 small onion 2 mushrooms, sliced 1/8 cup peas 28gr Mayflower mix 150ml cold water... I hope this may help if you are cooking for one... Thanks for a great informative video.. Lorna🏴
@@Skooty68 So you claim you worked there, you then searched for Mayflower Curry, just so that you could post that you claimed you worked there and claim that you know what goes into the powder.
Hi, thanks for that, how to cook the chicken properly is exactly what I needed to know, so far I’ve only done Katsu, but looking forward to trying this, I use Goldfish curry paste, it seems pretty authentic.
I've been making this for a while now using this curry powder. Use pre-cooked, diced chicken instead though, saves time. Makes a lot of meals for a cheap price and tastes great. You've just got to measure the curry powder well because there's a fine line between too much and too little making it either to thick or thin.
I buy 1.2kg bags of cooked frozen chicken in Farmfoods, bags of frozen peas and frozen sliced mushrooms. Nothing ever goes off and gets thrown away and you can make Chinese chicken curry in minutes whenever you choose, for something like £1.50 / $2 US :)
ive just used used ur sauce mix and made a chicken curry just like its done in the video. what can i say? absolutly fantastic! i used to order this dish from my local takeaway as it was my favourate and this tastes exactly the same. as i love cooking and chinese food too ill def be doing this one again. thankyou
As soon a§ I saw this video I ordered 2 packs off mayflower curry sauce extra hot and I love how it taste, literally the same as my local chinese... And I add the pea's and onions, aswell as mushrooms and some cut up chilli for more heat as I wouldn't say its extra hot, and its yummy, oh and nice clear vid :) Thanks
Hello !,just made this super dish,I added mushrooms cos I had some spare,bloody good tucker ! I served mine with boiled rice and microwaved poppadoms,ate some froze some for later.Brill.
I made this this evening by following the video and it turned out really nice! I didnt think about rice till about half way through though :D but it all worked out. thanks for uploading

@jasonxcheong2009 I'm 27, Kin is my father, you can probably guess roughly how old he is from that. I'm behind the camera for this video directing as best I can.
@EdMahoney19 Ive never tried using the garam masala wouldnt it be better with a curry powder ?. Also 2 tb of turmeric would be very strong , ill try that and a chicken stock cube anyhow. Do you use flour to thicken the sauce ?
i have tried slight adjustments? i sometimes add a small amount of chicken soup. and also a spoon of Barbeque sauce? from a squeeze bottle? you can try it to see if its better. i'm not sure about the peas. Not found any peas in my takeout yet.
i used this unknown curry-looking unlabeled bottle that was stored in my mother's spice rack... and... then i added curry paste by lee kee kum or something and it was amazing! LOL.. but cooked the ingredients separately and added it to my curry soup.. XD ... everything was improvised and i managed to make curry!! lol. i went to my bf's bestfriends condo n he had a spice rack. i had to make up the taste because i didn't know what was in curry... but i ended up making the curry bloody excellent!
Gorgeous you make it look so very easy which it is but I use a blender as I already put to much in I prefer the extra hot add some reaper curry powder or the chilli powder just a tiny bit to give it more of a kick but doesn't take the taste of this curry mix I have been buying for about 20 odd years now have 4 boxes in the cupboard in fact I think I might just go and make one lol 😂😂😂yip I'm having it now thank you ❤❤❤❤❤
@H2T2008 In our video we prepare enough for 2 people using: half an onion 1 large chicken breast a few of tablespoons of Mayflower Curry Sauce Mix (more will make it thicker) 2 cups of water Try also substituting chicken for beef or adding mushrooms or a handful of frozen peas. They all taste great and you won't be disappointed.
Is this curry sauce better than Maysan? I have used Maysan for years..and i love it but it is not that easy to get hold of but... i can get mayflower from 10 minutes away...
If you like it sweeter or fruity you could try a small handful of raisins, chunky cut carrots or even some fresh chunks of orange peel (cook the peel in the sauce and remove before serving).
@doh1959 I know what you mean , ive looked around online for an authentic chinese curry sauce like the takeaway. Fact is that no ones going to display a great money making recipe lol. Mayflower and Maysan are as close as ive bought, but there also full of hydrogenated veg oil (highly fatty). You can make a half decent one using madras powder and flour, then you can add various other things like ginger, pepper and turmeric to taste. I read that a chinese takeout curry has 100 grams of fat.
+Marian Lyons It makes the chicken very soft and not the stringy way it gets when it's fried, chinese restaurants always boil their chicken, then they fry it for taste in other dishes,
Not sure is any of you folks agree with me but i like doing this recipe slightly different, i like to marinade my chicken for a day with a little oil and Chinese 5 spice and wok fry the meat rather than boil it, i also add a finely sliced chilli if i want a wee kick.
Surely the title of the video gives it away? I use three brands, Mayflower, Maysan and Goldfish, all readily available here in the UK and cheap as chips!
Mayflower curry sauce powder is delicious, even extra hot is not spicy enough, so I add a good shake of chilli flakes and also season with dark soy sauce - try it!
Can I ask you, why did you boil the chicken? is that why the chicken melts in your mouth when you get it from a takeaway? Ive always fried it might give it a try boiling it.
