We all love the idea of a homemade curry, but between the countless ingredients, pots & pans and the cooking time to get it 'just right' isn't quite worth it.
This simple recipe uses minimal ingredients (& tastes just as good - if not better - than your local takeaway), one pan and can be prepped in advance, not to mention only takes an hour to cook!
It combines tender chicken, flavourful rice and a delicious, authentic korma sauce into one, just spoon & serve alongside your favourite accompaniments.
This recipe uses chicken thighs - but swap these out for chicken alternatives & this is fully vegan or check out this version here - that uses butter beans!
Recipe
Ingredients
200g dried basmati rice
30g plain yoghurt
20g Minced Garlic
6 chicken thighs - whole (thigh fillets can be used)
1 onion - chopped
400ml coconut milk
200ml chicken stock
Method
In a bowl or container, add the yoghurt, 20g curry powder and chicken thighs, mix well until completely coated, set aside.
In a large, ovenproof pan, heat 1tbsp oil, butter or alternative, add the onion and cook for 4-5 minutes or until softened, add the korma powder and cook for a further minute until fragrant.
