Ingredients

  • 1 onion roughly chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 15 g ginger peeled and roughly chopped
  • 1 red chilli roughly chopped
  • 1 1/2 tbsp medium curry powder
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 4 chicken breasts diced
  • 400 g tin of chopped tomatoes
  • 50 ml low fat yoghurt
  • 10 g coriander leaves chopped (use the stalks in the paste)
  • 300 g basmati rice

Instructions

  • Use a blender to blitz the onion, garlic, ginger, chilli, coriander stalks, curry powder, tomato paste. Add a splash of water and then blend until smooth.
  • Add the paste to a large saucepan and cook over a medium to high heat for a few minutes, this will release all the flavours.
  • Add in the diced chicken, and continue to cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until there are no more pink bits.
  • Pour in the tinned tomatoes, then fill the can half full of water, then pour it in and stir well. Leave to simmer for about 10-15 minutes. It can spit, so it may be worthwhile to cover the pan with foil or a lid.
  • Meanwhile cook your rice as per the packet instructions. (The nutritional info includes 75g of raw rice per person.)
  • Stir through the low-fat yoghurt and the chopped coriander through the curry, then taste for seasoning. Serve it with the rice and enjoy.
