Ingredients:
  • 18.40 gm vegetable oil
  • 600g chicken thigh fillets, halved
  • 1 brown onion, halved, sliced
  • 2cm piece fresh ginger, peeled, finely grated
  • 115.50 gm madras curry paste

  • 125.00 ml plain yoghurt
  • 80g baby spinach
  • Steamed Basmati rice, to serve

Instructions:
  • In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, heat oil until shimmering. Brown chicken in batches for 2 minutes each side until golden. Transfer to a plate. Lower heat to medium, add onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté for 5 minutes until onion softens. Stir in curry paste and cook for 1 minute until aromatic.
