Instructions

Get your Rice on
1

Pour the water for the rice (see pantry for amount) into a medium saucepan with a tight-fitting lid. 

Stir in the rice, cumin seeds and 1/4 tsp salt, then bring to the boil. Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium and cover with the lid. 

Leave to cook for 10 mins, then remove the pan from the heat (still covered) and leave to the side for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).

Start the Curry
2

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the tikka masala paste and tomato puree and cook for 30 secs. 

Stir in the diced chicken, chicken stock paste, coconut milk and honey (see pantry for amount). IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

Time to Simmer
3

Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until the chicken is cooked and the sauce has thickened, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Add the Veg
4

Next, add the peas and spinach to the pan a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.

Finish Off
5

Stir in the butter (see pantry for amount) until melted, then season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat. Add a splash of water if you feel it needs it. 

Serve
6

Share the rice out between your serving bowls and spoon over the curry to finish. 

Enjoy!
