INSTRUCTIONS
In a small bowl, combine the flour, cayenne, cinnamon and cloves and
mix well. Dredge the chicken pieces in the spiced flour. In a large,
wide stockpot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot but not
smoking. Add the chicken pieces in a single layer, being careful not
to crowd the pan-work in batches if necessary. Cook until well
browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. As the chicken is browned, remove to
a platter. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the onions, and cook until
they just begin to color, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger, garlic,
curry powder, and chili and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute
more. Add the stock, the browned chicken and the sweet potatoes,
return to a simmer and cook for about an hour, covered, until a peek
inside one of the pieces of chicken shows that it is cooked through.
Add the coconut milk and continue to cook for 1 minute. Remove from
the heat, add cilantro and serve. Tribune test kitchen note: We used
only 1 quart of stock and believe that the stated amount would make an
unacceptably thin stew. Posted By japlady@nwu.edu (Rebecca Radnor) On
