MARINATING & TOASTING
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together ½ tsp of curry paste and a drizzle of oil. Rinse the Chicken fillets to get rid of any residue from the packet, pat dry with paper towel, and add to the bowl. Toss until coated, season, and set aside to marinate. Place the flaked almonds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until golden brown, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.
THE CURRY BASE
Place a pot for the curry over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced Onion for 2-3 minutes until soft and translucent. Add the grated garlic and the remaining curry paste to taste. Fry for 30-60 seconds until fragrant, shifting constantly. Stir in the cooked chopped tomato and 100ml of water. Bring to a simmer, pop on a lid, and cook for 10-12 minutes until thickened, stirring occasionally.
GOLDEN Poppadoms
When the sauce is nearing completion, return the pan to a medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the poppadom for 30 seconds on one side. When starting to curl, use tongs or a spatula to flip and flatten out. Keep flipping and flattening until puffed up and golden. Remove from the pan on completion and allow to drain on paper towel.

Once the sauce has thickened, stir through the coconut cream and Chicken pieces. Replace the lid and simmer for 6-7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through, giving it a stir halfway. During the final minute, stir through the rinsed spinach until wilted. Season to taste and remove from the heat on completion.
