Cooking Instructions and Tips

Get Started
1
  • Boil a half-full kettle.
  • While it boils, pop a frying pan on medium-high heat.
  • Add the tikka masala paste, tomato puree, creme fraiche, chicken stock paste, sugar and water (see pantry for both). Stir to combine and bring to the boil.
  • Next, pour the boiled water into a saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat. Boil the rice, 10-12 mins.
Poach It
2
  • Meanwhile, stir the chicken into the frying pan. Bring to the boil and lower the heat.
  • Simmer, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.
  • Once the rice is cooked, drain, pop back in the pan and cover.
Spinach Time
3
  • When the chicken is cooked, add the spinach in handfuls so it’s piping hot, 1-2 mins.
  • Remove from the heat. Stir in the butter (see pantry) until melted.
Dinner's Ready!

  • Share the rice and curry between your bowls.

  • Enjoy!
