Ingredients

1 tbsp oil
2 medium onions, sliced
100g Shemin’s Indian Curry Paste (Chilli-Free, Mild, Medium or Hot)
900g boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
400g tin chopped tomatoes
200ml coconut milk
2 heaped tbsp cashew nut butter (you can buy this ready made or soak 4 heaped tbsp of cashew nuts in boiling water for 10 minutes, then drain and blitz in a food processor)
1 level tbsp Shemin’s Garam Masala
Handful fresh coriander
Lime juice to taste

How to make South Indian Chicken Cashew Curry

Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan and gently fry the onions until browned, around 10 minutes.
Add Shemin’s Indian Curry Paste and a splash of water, and cook on a gentle heat for 3 minutes.
Add the chicken thighs and coat in the curry paste mixture, stir for around 4 minutes.
Pour in the chopped tomatoes and let the mixture simmer for 15 minutes with the lid on, stirring occasionally.
Add the cashew nut butter, Shemin’s Garam Masala and the coconut milk to the curry, and stir in. Cook on high with the lid off for 5 minutes to thicken the sauce. You can heat for longer if you prefer a thicker curry sauce.
Stir in the fresh coriander and lime juice to taste.
Serve with rice and naan breads.

Tips

TIP: If you’re vegan, substitute the chicken for quorn pieces or par boiled potatoes.
