Shopping list

• 4 x chicken breast fillets, chopped into bite size pieces
• 2 x bell peppers, diced
• 1 onion, diced finely
• 5 tomatoes, diced
• 2 tomatoes, cut into wedges
• 2 garlic cloves, chopped finely/minced
• 4 fresh chillies, chopped finely
• 1 tsp tumeric
• 1 tbsp garam masala
• 1 tbsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp salt
• 3/4 cup water
• 2 tbsp tomato puree
• 2 tbsp natural/greek yoghurt
• 1 tbsp honey or agave nectar
• 1 tbsp coconut oil or olive oil
• 1 x large cauliflower or 4 servings of pre-made store bought cauliflower rice

Let’s do this

• To make your own cauliflower rice, roughly chop the cauliflower and place in a blender or chop finely into rice grain size pieces. The cauliflower rice can then be placed in a microwavable bowl and heated in the microwave on full power until cooked.
• Heat the oil in a fairly deep non-stick frying pan or wok over a medium-high heat.
• Add the garlic, chillies, diced tomatoes, cumin, garam masala, turmeric, agave or honey and salt and stir fry for about 1 minute. Do not let the garlic or spice burn!
• Add the chicken pieces to the pan and cook for a further 3 minutes, turning the chicken regularly to coat in the spices.
• Pour over the water and stir in the tomato puree followed by the yoghurt and simmer on medium heat for 5 minutes.
• Add the chopped bell peppers and tomato wedges and simmer for a further 5 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has reduced by a third.
• Serve the curry with cauliflower rice and enjoy!
