Heat the vegetable oil in a saucepan. Fry the potatoes for a minute or two, evenly on both sides. Take the potatoes out and set aside.
With the remaining oil, sauté the celery, onion, garlic, and ginger.
Add the chicken. Sauté until brown. Flip the chicken pieces so that both sides are cooked.
Add a tablespoon of fish sauce.
Pour in the coconut milk and bring the mixture to a boil.
Add the curry powder and cook until the mixture reduces to half the size.
Add the red bell pepper and fried potatoes. Cook for 5-10 minutes.

Notes
The spices — It’s not a bad idea to go with a blend of different spices with the curry powder. Chili powder, cinnamon, and black pepper would complement your Pinoy chicken well.
The serving — It is generally a tradition to serve Pinoy chicken with steamed rice, even though it’s not included in the original Pinoy chicken recipe. Not only would it make your dish even more authentic, but steamed rice would only take your Pinoy chicken to another level.
