Recipe from Jane Padwick

Easiest ever chicken korma !! I have made this curry SOO many times. It’s just soooo good and unbelievably easy. No grinding spices, no making pastes, just a few choice ingredients added at the right time and voila, the most delicious curry EVER ?

The ingredients can be adjusted to taste (more chilli, more chutney – esp good for a child’s palette)

INGREDIENTS (serves 6)

2 skinless chicken breasts, cut into 3

6 skinless thighs, cut in half

1 large onion, finely sliced

2 tsp turmeric

2tsp cumin seeds

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp ginger

1/4 tsp black mustard seeds

1/2 tsp chilli flakes

1 can tinned tomatoes

150ml chicken stock

2 bay leaves

75g ground almonds

2 tbsp mango chutney

4-6 tbsp creme fraiche

Toasted flaked almonds & coriander to serve

METHOD

Brown the chicken in oil in a large casserole in batches, set aside Add a little more oil and soften the onion for 7 mins Add the spices and cook for 1 min Add the chicken, tomatoes & stock & stir well Add the bay leaves, season and cook for 40 mins until the sauce thickens Stir in the ground almonds, mango chutney & creme fraiche, check for seasoning Remove the bay leaves Serve sprinkled with the flaked almonds & coriander leaves

Sometimes my food is super-quick and easy and other times a little more involved. Sometimes it’s plant-based, other times I use the best quality steak or super-fresh fish from a local supplier. Sometimes I produce a meal entirely from store cupboard ingredients or fridge leftovers. It’s all about creating amazing flavours and delicious, well-balanced meals. I also bake a little and love scrumptious moist cakes, breads, pancakes, sour dough & tarts. It’s important to indulge sometimes! Good food just makes everything better; especially at the moment!” I can be found on Instagram @janesunlockedkitchen
