Wondering how to make curry chicken? This is the recipe that I put together from visiting various websites, verbal consultations, and just experimenting on my own and with my family. It's rich and hearty, with flavor that's great when you can't get the real thing in the islands. Try a variety of hot peppers to change the flavor — even sweet bell peppers give it a different taste. Use fresh thyme to really bring out the fresh taste.

Raisin Tea Biscuits
Moist, lightly sweet raisin tea biscuits are just perfect for breakfast or a cup of tea in the afternoon. This is as close as I could get to the store bakery version. My husband and kids loved these just as much as the store-bought biscuits. We make a lactose-free version with vanilla soy milk and margarine, but have made the milk variety for others. Recipe works perfectly in both options.
