Chicken Mussamun

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons red curry paste
1 3/4 inch thick) slice ginger, minced
1 medium onion
1 1/4 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cubed
3 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons fish sauce
3 tablespoons tamarind paste
1/3 cup peanut butter
3 cups peeled, cubed potatoes
1 (13.5 ounce) can coconut milk
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in curry paste, onion and minced ginger; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Stir in the cubed chicken, and cook until the pieces turn white on the outside, about 3 minutes.
Stir in brown sugar, fish sauce, tamarind paste, peanut butter, potatoes, and coconut milk. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender and the chicken pieces are no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes. Add the lime juice and cook for an additional 5 minutes before serving.
