Ingredients
- 2 tsp vegetable or olive oil
- 2 banana shallots, quartered lengthways
- 2 spring onions, sliced
- 1 small British free-range skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-size chunks
- 1 tbsp korma curry paste
- 2 tsp mango chutney
- 2 large vine tomatoes, chopped
- 1 tbsp clotted or double cream
- Squeeze lemon juice, plus a lemon wedge to serve
- 1-2 fresh coriander sprigs, chopped, to serve
- Steamed rice and poppadums (optional) to serve
Method
- Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan, add the shallots and fry for 3-4 minutes to brown. Add half the spring onions and fry for 1-2 minutes more.
- Stir in the chicken, korma paste, mango chutney and most of the chopped tomatoes. Fry for a few minutes, then add 125ml freshly boiled water. Simmer for 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
- Stir in the cream, then taste, adding a little lemon juice to sharpen the flavour. In a bowl, mix the remaining tomatoes, spring onion, coriander, more lemon juice, salt and pepper.
- Serve the curry with a lemon wedge, steamed rice and poppadums (if you like), with the fresh tomato salad scattered on top.
