•Pot with Lid
Cooking Steps
1
- Rinse the rice to remove excess starch. Pour 300ml cold salted water (per 2P) into a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid.
- Stir in the rice and bring to the boil.
- Once boiling, lower the heat to medium and cover with the lid.
- Leave to cook for 10 mins, then remove the pot from the heat.
- Keep covered for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
2
- Meanwhile, halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
- Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
3
- Place a large pot over medium heat with 2 tbsp butter (per 2P) and a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, fry the onion until softened, stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins.
- Add the North Indian spice mix and korma paste and cook until fragrant, 1 min.
- Season with salt and pepper.
4
- Add the chicken to the onion and season with salt and pepper.
- Fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
NOTE: Swapping to tofu? Chop into 2cm cubes, season as instructed and, after cooking the onion, fry in the hot pan for 6-8 mins.
5
- Add the passata, creme fraiche and 25ml water (per 2P).
- Simmer until sauce is slightly reduced, 7-9 mins.
- Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.
TIP: Add a splash of water if you feel the sauce needs loosening.
6
- Fluff up the rice with the fork and divide between bowls.
- Serve the butter chicken alongside the rice.
- Garnish with a sprinkling of cashews and coriander.
