Instructions

  1. Heat a lidded nonstick saucepan over a medium heat. Add the oil and stir-fry the onions for 5 mins, stirring occasionally. Add the red pepper, garlic and ginger. Continue frying for 3-5 mins until the veggies have softened.
  2. Add the chicken to the pan. Cook for 5 mins, stirring regularly, until starting to brown. Add the green pepper and green chilli. Cook for another 2 mins, stirring regularly. Add the curry powder, cumin seeds and passata. Stir and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, part-covered, for 10 mins or until the chicken is cooked through. If it feels too dry, add a splash of water. Season to taste.
  3. When you’re ready to serve, warm the microwave basmati rice according to pack instructions. Warm the poppadoms.
  4. Make a raita by adding the lemon juice into the yogurt. Serve ½ pouch rice per person, with ¼ of the curry, 1 poppadom, 1 tsp mango chutney and a dollop of raita.
