Instructions
1
- Add 300ml water (double for 4p), turmeric and stock powder to a pot over medium-high heat.
- Bring to the boil then add the rice.
- Once boiling, lower the heat to medium and cover with the lid.
- 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, place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the chicken and season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.
- Fry until golden brown on the outside, 5-7 mins.
- Meanwhile, halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging used to keep it fresh.
3
- Add the onion to the pan. Fry until softened, 3-4 mins.
- Blend the cashews and coconut milk together until almost smooth (take care not to overwhip).
- Add the North Indian spice mix to the pan. Cook until fragrant, 1 min.
- Pour in the passata, creamy cashew mixture and 50ml water (double for 4p).
- Cook for 5-7 mins. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
TIP: If you don't have a blender, finely chop the cashews instead!
