Chicken Curry: This chicken curry dish has been my family's favourite picnic meal since my children were young. Now they are grown up and have their own families. However this dish still brings us together and reminds us of those happy memories! This dish goes best with french loaf or steaming hot white rice, so be sure to cook extra rice to go with it!
