Directions:

Prepare rice. Meanwhile, melt butter over medium-high heat in a large, shallow pot, or large sauté pan with 2-inch sides. Add the white part of the onions, garlic, ginger and curry powder; cook and stir 1 minute. (Reserve the dark green tops of the onions and serve as a condiment.) Add chicken; cook and stir 2 minutes. Add longer cooking vegetables such as carrots or broccoli and chicken broth. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer until vegetables are almost tender. Add quicker cooking vegetables such as bell peppers and zucchini; cook several minutes, until almost tender. Mix cornstarch and 1 3/4 cup milk until smooth; add to pot. Bring to a boil; stirring constantly about 1 minute, until mixture thickens. Add more milk if sauce is too thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve curry with rice and condiments.

dry-roasted peanuts or toasted almonds
