About the Recipe

If you love curry, this is a simple and basic way to make it. Warming and tasty, it is an all-in-one meal. You can make ahead as the flavours become more intense a day later.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp coconut or olive oil

  • 1 red onion, finely chopped

  • 2 tsp ginger root, grated

  • ½ red chilli, finely chopped

  • 1 red pepper, diced

  • 2 chicken breasts, cut into cubes

  • ½ cauliflower, cut into florets

  • ½ tsp ground coriander

  • ½ tsp ground cumin

  • 1 tsp medium curry powder

  • 300g chopped fresh or tinned tomatoes

  • 1 tbsp tomato purée

  • 1 handful baby spinach leaves

  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Step 1


Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the onion, ginger and chilli with a splash of water and cook for 1 minute.


Step 2


Add the red pepper, chicken and cauliflower and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring.


Step 3


Add the coriander, cumin and curry powder and mix well. Add the tomatoes, tomato purée and 1⅔ cups water. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 15 minutes until the chicken is cooked and the sauce starts to thicken.


Step 4


Stir in the spinach until wilted.


Step 5


Serve in bowls with basmati rice.


The warming spices of ginger, chilli, coriander, cumin and curry powder all have protective and healing properties. They stimulate digestion, have anti-inflammatory properties and provide immune support. If new to curry, reduce the amount of spice and choose a mild curry powder — your digestive system will gradually acclimatise.
