Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 6 skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 tbsp medium curry paste, such as Balti
  • 400g can cream of tomato soup
  • 200g natural yogurt
  • 150g fine green beans, trimmed
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • Small handful chopped fresh coriander, plus extra leaves to serve

Method: How to make spiced tomato and yogurt chicken

1. Heat half the oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add half the chicken and brown all over. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Repeat with the remaining oil and chicken. Set aside.

2. Add the onion to the pan and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Stir in the curry paste and cook for 2 minutes. Return the browned chicken to the pan and stir to coat in the curry paste. Add the tomato soup, then fill a quarter of the can with water and add to the pan, along with the yogurt. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes, until the sauce has thickened up slightly.

3. Meanwhile, bring a small saucepan of water to the boil. Add the beans to the saucepan, cook for 2 minutes, drain, and refresh under cold water. Stir into the curry, cook for 2 minutes, then stir in the lemon juice and chopped coriander. Season to taste.

4. Divide between 4 deep bowls and garnish each with coriander leaves. Serve with rice, naan and a selection of Indian chutneys.

  1. As with so many writers of recipes this one more than likely does all their cooking with a standard sized onion. All of the other ingredients are weighed or measured, but not the onion all we get is "thinly slice the onion". What weight should it be 2oz, 4oz, or even 8oz? As a novice I cannot understand why this is so, why not weigh the onion?
