Arabic Chicken Curry with Noodle Rice
This Arabic Chicken Curry recipe is so delicious and the perfect recipe for those who love flavour but not chilli. It's child-friendly and quick & easy to cook when entertaining. The noodle rice is a classic Arabic rice that can be eaten with anything. I use chicken stock or a stock cube for added softness and flavour. My kids love this classic Arabic rice even by itself with some natural yoghurt. I only used powdered spices and avoided seeds because my children prefer it that way.

It’s super easy to make and has many variations such as the Turkish Aka Masto Khiar, and the Greek Tzatziki Dip which both tend to have a runnier consistency and they use fresh dill in place of the Mint.
