Tongabezi Chicken Curry

Tongabezi chicken curry is a traditional chicken stew originating from Zambia. Although there are a few recipes, the curry is usually made with a combination of chicken, sweet potatoes, onions, tomatoes, garlic, lemongrass, hot peppers, stock, yogurt, ginger, coriander, and curry powder. The onions, ginger, and garlic are sautéed in oil until soft. Chicken pieces are added to the pan and cooked until done. Chopped tomatoes, lemongrass, curry powder, and stock are stirred in, and the curry is simmered for a few minutes. The sweet potatoes are boiled, sliced, fried in oil, and then served as an accompaniment to the curry, along with rice and yogurt.
