Instructions

1
  • Boil a half-full kettle. 
  • Meanwhile, cut the lime into wedges.
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
  • Once hot, fry the chicken, 8-10 mins. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.
2
  • Meanwhile, pour the boiled water into a saucepan with 0.25 tsp salt on high heat.
  • Boil the rice, 10-12 mins. Once cooked, drain, pop back in the pan and cover.
  • Halve the baby corn lengthways.
  • Add the corn, pea pods, ginger, garlic & lemongrass puree, Indonesian style spice and peanut butter to the chicken. Stir-fry, 2 mins.
3
  • Add the coconut milk, soy sauce, sugar and water for the curry (see pantry for both) to the chicken. Stir to combine.
  • Bring to the boil. Simmer, 2-3 mins.
  • Add a good squeeze of lime juice.
4
  • Share the rice between your bowls.
  • Top with the chicken curry.
  • Serve any remaining lime wedges alongside for squeezing over.

Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the peanut curry's taste, though some found it could use more intensity; a few suggested adding chilli for extra kick.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and easy to prepare, with most finding it ready in about 20 minutes rather than the stated 15.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding red pepper and spinach for more texture; use crunchy peanut butter or sprinkle peanuts on top for crunch.
  • Portions: Generous portion sizes satisfied most diners, making it a good value alternative to takeaway.
  • Sauce consistency: Some found the sauce too thin; try reducing added water or simmering longer for a thicker consistency.
