A bed of crispy greens is loaded with oven-toasted sweet potato, NOMU Indian Rub-spiced chicken, tangy tomato, & cooling cucumber. Drenched in a deliciously rich sweet buttermilk, ginger & tikka curry sauce.

SWEET POTATOES & PREP STEP
Coat the sweet potato chunks in oil and season. Air fry at 200°C until crispy, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway). While they are cooking, prep your salad. Rinse and roughly shred the salad leaves. Rinse and roughly chop the parsley. Rinse and halve the baby tomatoes and roughly dice the cucumber. Peel and grate the fresh ginger. Set aside.
NOMU-SPICED CHICKEN
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the chicken until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes per side. In the final minute, baste with a knob of butter and the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan, reserving any pan juices. Season and set aside.
CREAMY CURRY SAUCE
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil (if necessary). Fry the ginger and curry paste for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant. Remove the pan from the heat. To a bowl, add the sweet buttermilk. Whisk in the fried curry paste and chopped parsley through the sweet buttermilk and set aside.
