Chicken curry and rice is usually meant to be a comforting, hearty meal. If your chicken curry turns out too spicy, there are ways to reduce the heat. These methods will help make your curry more palatable without losing its flavour.
Stir in yoghurt, cream, or coconut milk to balance the spice with creaminess.
Add more water, broth, or tomatoes to dilute the curry’s intensity.
Add boiled potatoes, rice, or lentils to absorb some of the spice.
A touch of sugar, honey, or jaggery can help mellow out the spice.
A little extra oil or butter can reduce the perception of spiciness.
Pair the curry with rice, naan, or raita to balance the heat.
