Utensils

•Sieve
•Pot with Lid

Instructions

Cook the Rice
1
  • Add 300ml cold salted water (per 2P) to a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid. 
  • Stir in the rice and bring to the boil.
  • Once boiling, lower the heat to medium, cover and cook for 10 mins.
  • Once cooked, remove from the heat.
  • Keep covered for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
Get Prepped
2
  • Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
  • Trim the cucumber, quarter lengthways, then chop widthways into small pieces.
  • Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
  • Quarter the lemon.
  • Drain and rinse the beans in a sieve.
Simmer the Curry
3
  • Place a large pot over medium-high heat with a knob of butter and a drizzle of oil.
  • When hot, add half the onion and fry until softened, 4-5 mins.
  • Add the North Indian spice mix and fry until fragrant, 1 min. 
  • Pour in the chopped tomatoes and beans.
  • Cover and simmer for 10-12 mins. When the curry has 2 mins left to simmer, stir in the garam masala.

NOTE: If you've chosen to add beef, add the mince to the pot along with the onion and fry until cooked through, 5-6 mins.

Make the Salsa
4
  • Meanwhile, mix the cucumber, remaining onion and half the coriander in a bowl.
  • Season to taste with salt, pepper and lemon juice.
Finishing Touches
5
  • Add the creme fraiche to the curry.
  • Cook, stirring, until warmed through, 1-2 mins.
  • Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.
  • Add a splash of water to loosen the curry if you feel it's too thick.
Garnish and Serve
6
  • Serve up spoonfuls of fluffy rice and top with the creamy curry.
  • Top with the cucumber salsa.
  • Squeeze over lemon juice to taste.
  • Top with remaining coriander.
