Preparation
1
Rinse the rice to remove excess starch. Place a pot over medium-high heat with 300ml water (per 2P), turmeric and stock.
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).

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.
NOTE: Swapping to paneer? Chop into 2cm cubes. Season as instructed and fry until golden all over, 5-8 mins. Remove from pan once cooked. Stir into sauce before serving.

Add the onion to the pan and fryuntil softened, 3-4 mins. Season with salt and pepper.
Blend cashews and creme fraiche together.
Add North Indian spice to the pan. Cook until fragrant, 1 min.
Pour in cashew mixture, passata, ½ tsp sugar (per 2P) and a knob of butter.
Cook for 5-7 mins. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
TIP: No blender? No problem! Finely chop the cashews instead!
