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.
