  1. Heat cooking oil in a medium pan and add the massaman curry paste to it. Cook for a minute and then add the chicken cubes to it.
  2. Cook the chicken for 2-3 minutes. Add coconut milk to it, mix well and cook it covered for 5-10 minutes.
  3. Add the onions, boiled cubed potatoes , cashews and brown sugar to it. The recipe also call for a teaspoon of fish sauce which I have skipped at times, so if you are not big on fish sauce feel free to skip it.
