January 12 is Curry Chicken Day and what better way to celebrate it than with a classic chicken curry?
Curry Chicken Day is a day of action that takes place annually on January 12 and is celebrated with many different activities, especially in the United States. Restaurants offer special curry chicken menus, grocery stores sell curry chicken ingredients, and cooking shows share recipes for this popular dish with diverse variations – from mild to spicy, sweet to sour. Curry combines an abundance of spices, the mix of which varies depending on the region and recipe. Some of the most common ingredients include turmeric, chili, ginger, cilantro, and cumin. But curry is not only delicious, but also healthy: turmeric provides a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from damage, ginger has an anti-inflammatory effect and helps with digestive problems, while coriander is rich in vitamins and minerals. The classic chicken curry is a simple, yet very tasty dish. It is quick to prepare, making it suitable for beginners in the kitchen.

From classic side dishes to main courses, rice offers endless possibilities: steamed, fried, as a risotto or in a delicious rice stir-fry. But cooking rice is an art in itself and starts with choosing the right type of rice. From basmati to jasmine to arborio, there is a wide range of varieties to choose from, each with its own flavor and texture.
