This was my first attempt at cooking anything from The Spicery and it was fantastic. It was easy to follow the recipe and even someone like me who does not cook much or know many cookery basics managed to produce a great meal which my wife, brother and sister-in-law thoroughly enjoyed.
Nice to try - loved the chicken recipe, less keen on the sambal (nothing wrong with this, personal taste, found too smokey/strong - we have another kit for this recipe, when we’ll adjust the strength of the sambal with addition of some minced tomato & green papaya or cucumber).
We're really happy to hear how much you loved the chicken rendang, but sorry that the sambal wasn't your cup of tea. The idea of altering the recipe to your taste next time sounds like a great one!
Absolutely wonderful! I’ve tried many of the curry and other recipes, but this kit is my favourite so far. It’s comforting, beautifully spiced and the Sambal is fantastic - enough Chili kick to take notice, but a lovely background warmth as well. Loved it!
We're so happy to hear how much you loved this deliciously rich curry, and the tangy sambal on the side! Happy spicing!
We all piled into the kitchen and set to work on our Malaysian Chicken Rendang. The Sambal Assam adds a powerful kick to an otherwise family friendly, delicious, coconutty (yes, it’s a word) chicken rendang. This is perfect for the family; grown ups and kids alike can add some heat if they want. The crunchy bean salad with crispy onions and the gently spiced braised cabbage worked a treat with the rendang. This was our first Spicery kit and we’re looking forward to our next. What a lovely way to get our family together in the kitchen at the weekend, thank you!
Fantastic! So happy to hear everyone enjoyed it and lovely presentation. Thanks for sharing- we look forward to seeing your future Spicery creations!
Delicious! The Sambal Assam added a real fiery kick, and the chicken was amazingly tender
A favourite here at Spicery HQ and it looks just as good on your plate too!
This was a delicious and delicate feast! Highly enjoyable and would love to repeat it.
