Denise''s Chicken Curry Recipe from the Portfolio Office Kitchen
On Fridays, Denise, our in-housen cook, often makes the yummiest chicken curry for the Portfolio staff. The aroma alone is enough to distract most of us from work - but the taste is out of this world!

Denise (below) kindly shares her own recipe for Chicken Curry with our readers today.
