Brill recipe only a few spices needed. I cooked it from a new book not out just yet.
I am featuring it for my review blog and I now have the job of cooking and converting a recipe for S/W.
1 tbsp extra virgin oil (adapted from 2 tbsps veg oil)
2 tsp cumin seeds
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 green chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
2.5cm/1in piece root ginger, peeled and
finely chopped
4 large tomatoes, roughly chopped
1 tsp garam masala
½ tsp turmeric
1½ tsp salt ( I use less but it tastes bests with that amount)
500g boneless, skinless chicken, cut into thin strips I used breast)
1 green pepper, deseeded and cut into thin strips
juice of ½ lemon
rice, to serve
Heat a heavy pan/wok over a medium heat and add the oil.
Chuck in the cumin seeds, allow them to crackle for 10 seconds, then add the onion.
Stir-fry for 3–4 minutes, or until the onion starts turning golden, then add the green chilli, ginger, tomatoes, garam masala, turmeric and salt.
Mix well and stir-fry for 5–6 minutes, or until the tomatoes have started to break down and form a sauce. I lower the heat as it has not enough liquid and also add a tiny amount of water if tomatoes not juicy.
2 Add the chicken and green pepper, mix again reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 12–15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Add the lemon juice and give it one last mix.
If you like aromatic and tasty curry try this, my son hates hot curry he even posted on Facebook how good it was (now thats the height of cool in his eyes!!)
The chillies were the Tesco mixed packet they have large red and green assorted I used two thirds of a large one. If hotter chillis ( Scotch Bonnet etc) adjust to suit as the dish is more about flavour than heat.
I served Basmati rice with 0% Greek yogurt, with chopped cucumber and sprinkled with paprika.
Then a raw salsa (fed up with salad)
fresh tomatoes, finely chopped
1 small red onion finely chopped
3 mild chillies, finely chopped ( I used 1 large)
bunch of coriander finely chopped
salt to taste
Lime juice freshly squeezed
1 tbsp water
Combine all the ingredients together in a bowl and serve straight away.
