Chicken Drumstick Cashew Nut Curry is a rich, flavorful dish rooted in South Asian cuisine, often inspired by Indian or Sri Lankan cooking techniques. This curry features tender chicken drumsticks simmered in a spiced blend of creamy coconut milk, ground cashews, tomatoes, onion, garlic, and ginger. Aromatic spices like turmeric, cumin, coriander, and cinnamon enhance its depth. Cashews add a velvety texture, healthy fats, and protein, while coconut milk provides essential nutrients and natural sweetness. Chicken drumsticks are an excellent protein source, though skin-on options may increase saturated fat content. The dish is celebrated for its balance of wholesome ingredients, though the calorie count can be significant depending on added oil or cream. Served commonly with rice or flatbreads, it’s a hearty, nutrient-packed meal that combines healthy fats, lean protein, and diverse spices—though mindful portions are advisable for those watching fat or calorie intake.
