Keralan cuisine is based on the culinary traditions of the region's Christian, Hindu and Muslim communities, and each group puts its own imprint on each recipe. This mildly sweet chicken curry (Nadan Kozhi) is in the style of Syrian-Christian Keralans; cooks from other communities omit the potatoes and squash.
Suggested Pairing
Chenin Blanc has lots of tropical flavors and a soft acidic edge—qualities that complement this mild curry. As South Africa's workhorse grape, Chenin Blanc is gaining international attention for clean, food-friendly wines.
