Ingredients

(Serves 4)

8 chicken thighs, skinned, boned, and diced into large chunks

1 large onion, finely chopped

8 cloves garlic, finely chopped

150g frozen spinach 

2 tbsp vegetable oil

2 tbsp garam masala 

2 tsp ground ginger

2 large red chillis

3 tbsp tomato purée 

100 ml water

3 tbsp lemon juice 

250ml low fat natural yogurt 

Pilau rice to serve (confession time!!!... I tend to cheat and use uncle ben's microwave packets, they're perfect every time and so so easy!) 

Method

1. Add the vegetable oil to a large frying pan or wok over a medium heat, add the garam masala and ginger and stir for a couple of minutes until really fragrant. 

2. Add the garlic, onion and whole chillis and fry until soft.

3. Add the diced chicken thighs and fry until starting to brown.

4. Add the frozen spinach, water, lemon juice and tomato purée and bring to a simmer.

5. Stir through the yogurt and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare your rice.

6. Remove the chillis from the curry and finely slice them. Serve up the curry on a bed of rice then sprinkle with as many slices of chilli as you think you can handle...
