Instructions

Scorch the onions & peppers

Step 1

Cook the curry

Step 1

In the same pan on a medium high heat add 3 tablespoons (45ml) vegetable oil.

Step 2

Stir in the garlic paste and ginger paste and cook for around 10 seconds.

Step 3

Add the finely sliced onion, salt and kasoori methi. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes stirring occasionally until translucent and completely softened.

Step 4

Stir in the BIR mix powder and hot chilli powder for 10 seconds.

Step 5

Add the tomato paste and stir for 30 seconds.

Step 6

Add the masala paste and fresh tomato and stir for 30 seconds.

Step 7

Add the pre-cooked chicken and stir for around 1 minute coating all the chicken pieces with the sauce.

Step 8

Pour in half of the base gravy (100g) and cook on a high heat for around 2 minutes whilst occasionally stirring. Scrape off any dried sauce on the sides back into the pan.

Step 9

Add the remaining gravy (100g) and cook on a high heat for 1 minute until the sauce boils rapidly.

Step 10

Turn down to a low heat and simmer for another 5 minutes stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens completely and the oil starts to separate.

Add the coriander and stir through.

Step 12

Turn the heat back up to full and cook for around 30 seconds so that the curry just starts to stick to the sides of the pan, scrape any dried curry back into the pan and serve.
