Ingredients
- 2 russet potatoes (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into large chunks
- 3 small skinless, bone-in chicken leg-and-thigh quarters (12 to 14 ounces each)
- 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons Madras curry powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 serrano chile pepper, roughly chopped (remove seeds for less heat)
- 1 15-ounce can tomato sauce
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 cup frozen sliced okra, thawed
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for topping
- 2 pieces naan, warmed and torn into pieces
Instructions
- Put the potatoes in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Toss the chicken with the ginger, curry powder, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Lay on top of the potatoes and sprinkle with the serrano. Whisk the tomato sauce and tomato paste together and pour over the chicken. Cover and cook on low until the potatoes and chicken are very tender, 7 to 8 hours.
- Uncover the slow cooker and gently remove the chicken. Add the okra and cilantro to the slow cooker, cover and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, discard the bones and cartilage from the chicken but leave the meat in large pieces. Return the chicken to the slow cooker and gently stir a few times to coat in the sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide the curry among shallow bowls. Top with more cilantro and serve with the naan.

Okra?? In curry? Na
Very good recipe. Get all your mise en place ingredients prepared before you begin so the recipe flows more smoothly. I left the skin on the chicken and rubbed the curry powder all over it and let it sit in the dry rub overnight for more flavor. I added a large yellow onion sliced very thinly and placed on top of the potatoes. I also swapped sweet baby peas for the okra. I will definitely make this again.

Ok but will definitely work to coax more flavor out of the aromatics next time and use crushed tomatoes to make more of a tomato gravy and less of a broth.
Good luck
We loved this! We could not stop eating it. The flavors were so rich and the kitchen smelled delicious all day.
Made this for dinner and it was a hit! I added some chicken stock to the tomato mixture and I think it helped add flavor and liquid to the dish. I will definitely make again.
