Incredibly Easy Curry and Rice
I don’t know where my mother got her Curry and Rice recipe, but I remember her making this for us as far back as when I was in Elementary school. This is one of those easy recipes that starts with a can of Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom Soup. Starting with your soup as a base, makes this such a quick and easy meal.
One of the things I always found the most fun about curry and rice when I was a child was that I got to choose my own toppings. I served up this dish for my Night Safari Dinner Party. For this event I chose to offer my guests peanuts, coconut and raisins to top their dishes. There are so many creative things you can offer to your guest for toppings: raisins, craisins, crushed or chunks of pineapple, peanuts, scallions or even small chunks of apples. Serve up your toppings in colorful little bowls and let your guests create their perfect curry!
- One Can of Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom Soup
- 2/3 Cup of Milk
- 3 Tablespoons Curry Powder
- 3 Ounces of Chicken Breast cut in cubes (you can substitute any other meat)
- 3 Cups of Uncle Ben’s White or Brown Rice
- Toppings:
- Peanuts
- Coconut
- Raisins
- Pineapple
- Scallions
- Prepare your rice per the package instructions.
- Open your Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom Soup and put it in a microwave safe bowl. Add the milk and the curry into the soup, mixing well, then add the chicken. Microwave on high for 3 minutes, or until your curry mixture is hot.
- Serve immediately with toppings in separate bowls for guests to add to their own dishes.
