Description

Classic coronation chicken sauce blends creamy mayonnaise with tangy curry powder and fruity apricot preserves. Chefs from Britain love this royal-inspired condiment that perfectly complements cold meats and salads you will savor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 tbsps / 3 fl oz mayonnaise
  • 23 tsp / 10-15 ml mild curry powder
  • 2 tbsps / 30 ml mango chutney
  • ½ tsp / 2.5 ml ground cinnamon
  • 13 tbsps / 15-45 ml sultanas

Instructions

  1. Blend Sauce Base: Whisk mayonnaise, curry powder, ground cinnamon, and mango chutney in a ceramic bowl until achieving a silky, uniform texture with no visible ingredient separation.
  2. Enhance Flavor Profile: Incorporate golden sultanas throughout the creamy mixture, ensuring even distribution and gentle folding to maintain sauce integrity.
  3. Season and Adjust: Fine-tune taste with a delicate balance of salt and freshly ground black pepper, then modulate sauce consistency by introducing filtered water or fresh lemon juice if needed, creating a smooth, pourable condiment.
  4. Store and Mature: Transfer the vibrant Coronation sauce into a pristine glass container with a secure lid, carefully wiping the rim to prevent contamination. Refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes to allow flavor harmonization, and preserve in the refrigerator’s coldest zone for up to 5 days, enabling the sauce’s complex notes to develop and intensify.

Notes

  • Boost Flavor Complexity: Allow the sauce to rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, enabling the spices and ingredients to marry and develop a deeper, more nuanced taste profile.
  • Customize Consistency: Adjust the sauce’s thickness by adding water or lemon juice, creating a perfect drizzling or spreading texture tailored to your preference.
  • Enhance Raisin Distribution: Gently fold golden sultanas to ensure even spread, preventing clumping and delivering a balanced sweet-tangy bite in every spoonful.
  • Maximize Freshness: Store the sauce in an airtight glass container in the coldest refrigerator section, maintaining optimal flavor and quality for up to 5 days.
