Curry Chicken with Lemon Grass

When comes to cooking curry, adding lemon grasses to curry chicken has always been our family style.
Its said to reduce the rate of having a bloated tummy.Hai yo, all these old sayings, its better to believe.
Thick & creamy delicious curry which goes well with almost everything, especially rice or breads.
Normal practise for me is to prepare curry chicken baked rice with it.This time round, there will be a different way of serving.That is .........with pratas!
