Pro Tip – Serving with basmati rice and naan bread makes this recipe the most authentic chicken curry, which will please a large crowd in any family home. However plain rice works just as well if that is all you have in the store cupboards.

Instructions
 

Chicken Curry

  • I blitzed the onion, ginger and garlic in the food processor to form a rough paste (if you don't have a food processor you can grate them and mix them together).
    4 Garlic Cloves, Large piece of ginger, 4 tbsp Oil
  • After heating the oil in the wok, I added the cumin seeds and cooked for about 30 seconds before adding the chicken, onion, garlic and ginger paste. I then fried this for about 8 minutes or so until it turned a dark golden colour.
    1 Onion, 1 tbsp Cumin Seeds, 4 Chicken Breast

    2 tbsp Curry powder, 400 g Tin of chopped tomatoes, 2 tbsp Mango Chutney
  • Next, to be added was the chicken stock, which I stirred in before leaving it to simmer away for about 10 minutes until the chicken was cooked through.
