RICE
Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 150ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.
PREP
Peel ½ the onion and roughly dice. Peel and grate the garlic. Peel and grate the ginger. Rinse and roughly dice the tomato. Rinse, pick, and roughly chop the coriander.
GOLDEN CHICKEN
Place a pot over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Fry until lightly golden, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pot and set aside.
CREAMY BUTTER SAUCE
Return the pot to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry ¾ of the diced onion until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add ¾ of the grated garlic, the grated ginger, and the butter chicken spice. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the tomato passata, the cream, and 50ml of water. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, 12-15 minutes (stirring occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, add the fried chicken mince. Loosen with a splash of water if necessary. Add a sweetener and seasoning.
SOMEBODY SAY SAMBAL?
In a small bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, ½ the chopped coriander, the remaining onion (to taste), a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Set aside in the fridge.
GARLIC NAAN
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, mix through the remaining garlic until fragrant, 30 seconds-1 minute (shifting constantly). Add the naan and toast until golden, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the heat and cut into squares.
WARM UP THE BELLY
Make a bed of the rice and top with the creamy butter chicken mince. Side with the buttery naan and the sambal. Garnish with the remaining coriander.
