Let’s get cooking

Step 1

Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the onion and stir over low heat until the onions are soft and transparent (about 4-6 minutes).

Step 2

Add the curry powder/curry paste, salt and sugar, and stir over low heat for another 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the tomatoes and the chicken. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring the whole time.

Step 4

Stir in the stock/water, the carrots and the green vegetables. Put the lid on the saucepan and turn up the heat. Bring to the boil.

Step 5

Once the curry is boiling, give it a good stir, put the lid back on and turn the heat down the lowest setting. Boil slowly for 15 minutes.

Step 6

After 15 minutes take off the lid and stir in either the coconut milk or the flour and water mixture. Cook for another 5 minutes with the lid off.
