This recipe tastes just like a restaurant & was on an Indian real estate agents flyer. It's very easy too.
- 500g-1 kg boneless, skinless chicken
- 1 medium onion
- 1 can Indian-style tomatoes (if you do substitute with a normal can doesn't taste as nice ?increase spices below) * These are Watties canned tomatoes already containing Indian spices
- 2-3 Tbsp butter
- 2 Tbsp crushed garlic
- 1 Tbsp crushed ginger
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 Tbsp ground coriander
- 2 tsp chilli powder (to taste)
- 1/2 cup ground almonds
- 1 cup unsweetened yoghurt
- 150ml fresh cream (I normally omit this)
- salt
- 1 tsp sugar
- fresh coriander (if available) to garnish
- Trim & cut the chicken into small cubes.
- Chop the onion up finely.
- Heat the butter until frothy.
- Lightly fry onions until soft, then add spices. Cook over a medium heat for a few minutes.
- Add chicken, stirring continuously until chicken turns white.
- Add can of tomatoes & almonds.
- Cover & simmer for 20 minutes (start cooking rice now).
- Add yoghurt, cream, sugar & salt to taste.
- Garnish with fresh coriander (worth buying. Nigella recommends that fresh unused coriander be frozen whole in a paper bag for those times of the year when unavailable).
hmm I wonder what the Indian style tomatoes is, have never heard of it
