Maple Chicken Curry

My sister made this for me one time and I have made it for others and the recipe has been passed on so many times. My sister ate this at a friend's house and tried to re-create it without the recipe. She tried so many times and discovered that making it great had to do with the cream! Serve with basmati rice with saffron.
