Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive or rapeseed oil
- 2 onions sliced
- 3 cloves garlic crushed or grated
- 2 cm ginger grated
- 1 teaspoon chilli flakes
- 2 teaspoons cumin seeds
- 2 teaspoons ground coriander
- 2 teaspoons garam masala
- 600 g diced chicken thigh
- 400 g tin chopped tomatoes
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh coriander cilantro plus extra for garnish
- Basmati rice and / or naans to serve
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 160C/140C fan/gas mark 3/325F (or use your slow cooker – see below).
- Place the oil and sliced onions in a medium pan and fry on a low heat, with the lid on, for 5 minutes until softened.
- Remove the lid and add the garlic, ginger and chilli flakes and cook for 1 more minute.
- Next add the cumin, coriander and garam masala and cook for a further 2 minutes, stirring regularly – add a small splash of water if the pan gets too dry, to ensure your spices don’t burn.
- Next add the diced chicken, tomatoes and salt and bring to the boil.
- Transfer the curry to an oven proof dish with a lid, and place it in your preheated oven for 1 hour 30 minutes.
- Alternatively transfer the curry in your slow cooker and cook for 4-6 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low.
- When your curry is ready, stir in the fresh coriander and serve with rice and/or naan breads and all your favourite accompaniments.
Notes
- For greater authenticity, take the slow cooked curry and place it into a hot frying pan or wok and fry it, stirring regularly, until the sauce has reduced to your liking.
- Suitable for freezing.
