Method

  • step 1

    Put the onions in a food processor with the garlic and ginger. Blitz until it is as smooth as possible, then pour in half the stock and blitz again.

  • step 2

    Heat a large non-stick pan, sprinkle in the spices and toast for 1 min. Pour in the onion mixture, the remaining stock and all but ½ tsp of the chopped chilli. Add the almonds and tomato purée, and stir well. Simmer for 35 mins until completely soft, stirring every now and then and adding a little water if the mixture starts to catch on the bottom of the pan.

  • step 3

    Add the chicken and half the fresh coriander. Heat very gently for 10 mins to cook the chicken through. Mix all the sambal ingredients with the remaining coriander and chilli, and heat the rice following pack instructions. Serve the chicken and sambal with the brown rice.

Have been making this curry for some years and love it. Always a favourite with guests too. The sambal takes it to another level.

This curry is really quite gentle and subtle - perhaps overly-so. There was no bitterness as some people have said - maybe they burnt the spices in the first step or something? The zingy freshness of the sambal is amazing - I could eat a mound of it on its own as a meal!

The curry part was nicely spiced but I would question whether it serves 6. That’s less than 100g of chicken per person. Next time i would add more veg to bulk it up. Sambal was very nice too.

In the curry, I added a red pepper, only added half of the stock, but added 2 dessert spoons of creme fraîche at the end. I didn't have any red onion for the sambal :( but very very good recipe, the sambal is super tasty! I will be making this again :)

The curry itself was not the best, however the banana sambal was absolutely amazing! Very good combination together.
