Preparation
1
Cook the Ginger Rice

a) Boil a full kettle.

b) Peel and halve the ginger. TIP: Use a teaspoon to easily scrape away the peel.

c) Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat. Add the rice and half the ginger and cook for 10-12 mins.

d) Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

2
Fry the Chicken

a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

b) Once hot, add the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry until golden brown, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

c) While the chicken cooks, grate the remaining ginger. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 

3
Simmer and Spice

a) Once the chicken has browned, stir in the tomato puree, North Indian style spice mix, grated ginger, mustard seeds, and half the garlic. 

b) Pour in the sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). Stir in the chicken stock paste.

 

4
Bring on the Peas

a) Bring to the boil then turn the heat down slightly and simmer until reduced by half, 3-5 mins.

b) Stir through the peas and cook for 1 min longer.

 

5
Finish the Curry

a) Once the sauce has reduced, stir in the creme fraiche.

b) Bring to the boil, then stir in the butter (see pantry for amount) until melted. Remove from the heat. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

c) Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.

6
Serve

a) Remove and discard the ginger from the rice and share between your bowls.

b) Top with the chicken masala curry.

Enjoy!
