    Hubby can’t imagine his Sunday Lunch without runny curry of Chicken or Mutton and I am not an exception too. We Bongs treat Runny Chicken or Mutton Curry as comfort food and we love to add big chunk of potato in our meat curry however, other than Bengali Cuisine, many Meat dishes especially Curries are prepared along with Potato and Kerala Style Chicken Stew is one of the commonest example of curried chicken with Potato.

    Keralian Chicken Stew a.k.a Kerala Style Chicken Stew is a creamy, mild Chicken Stew from the  southern part of India. This Stew is often treated as a comfort food. Tempered with Curry leaves and flavored with Coconut Milk, Keralian Chicken Stew with Appam is very popular in Kerala as “Breakfast” but I personally love it to have in Sunday lunch with plain rice especially in the Summer.
