A mid-week family favourite. Tasty and filling.
Ingredients:
– 50ml vegetable oil
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 teaspoons grated ginger root
– 1 teaspoon ground cumin
– 1 teaspoon ground coriander
– 1 teaspoon garam masala (or to taste)
– 2 tablespoons tomato paste
– 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
– 1 large onion, diced
– 900g skinless chicken thighs and/or breasts, cut into cubes
– 125ml water or broth, as needed for desired thickness of curry sauce
– 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Instructions:
1. Heat the oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander and garam masala. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
2. Add the tomato paste and salt, stirring to combine with the spices. Sauté for another minute or two until the tomato paste has darkened slightly in color.
3. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden (about 5 minutes).
4. Add chicken cubes and stir fry for about 3 minutes until lightly browned on all sides but not cooked through yet.
5. Add water or broth to create a sauce that coats the ingredients nicely (if too thick add more water/broth). Simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
6. Add the lemon juice and stir to combine. Cook for a few more minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
7. Serve over steamed rice or with naan bread and your favourite accompaniment(s), such as raita, chutney, mango pickle etc. Enjoy!
