Ingredients

  • 4 skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks (or use thighs or drumsticks)
  • 2 tsp cornflour
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 2 tsp curry powder
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • pinch sugar
  • 400ml chicken stock
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • handful frozen peas
  • rice to serve

Method

STEP 1

Toss the chicken pieces in the cornflour and season well. Set them aside.


STEP 2

Fry the onion in half of the oil in a wok on a low to medium heat, until it softens – about 5-6 minutes – then add the garlic and cook for a minute. Stir in the spices and sugar and cook for another minute, then add the stock and soy sauce, bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes. Tip everything into a blender and blitz until smooth.


STEP 3

Wipe out the pan and fry the chicken in the remaining oil until it is browned all over. Tip the sauce back into the pan and bring everything to a simmer, stir in the peas and cook for 5 minutes. Add a little water if you need to thin the sauce. Serve with rice.

And as always have a chilled day from the Viking
