Notes
- If you swap the chicken from breasts to thighs, we recommend trimming off any visible fat to keep them as lean as possible.
- If you are going to use beef steak instead of chicken, then add a teaspoon of baking soda to it when marinating to tenderise the meat.
- We used a mild curry powder, but you could use a hot one. We wouldn't recommend using garam masala, as that is a finishing spice rather than one used as the main spice.
- When you add the garlic and ginger to the pan, make sure you only cook it for 20 seconds so it doesn't burn, otherwise it will change the flavour of the dish.
