NUTTY BASMATI
Rinse the rice and place in a pot with ½ of the stock. Submerge in 300ml of water and stir through. Place over a medium-high heat and pop on a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and set aside to steam for a further 10 minutes. Drain on completion if necessary and fluff up with a fork.
GET THAT SAUCE GOING
Boil the kettle. Dilute the remaining stock with 65ml of boiling water. Place a pot for the curry over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry ½ of the diced Onion for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent. Add in the grated Ginger, then stir through the curry paste and sliced Chilli (both to taste). Mix in the almond flour and ½ of the quartered baby tomatoes, and cook for 3-4 minutes, shifting regularly. Stir in the coconut cream and diluted stock until well combined. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 4-5 minutes until thick and fragrant.
WHILE THE CURRY IS SIMMERING...
Make the sambal! Place the remaining tomato and Onion in a bowl with ¾ of the chopped coriander. Toss together with a drizzle of oil, some seasoning, and any remaining sliced Chilli if you’d like. Set aside for serving.
BLEND UNTIL SILKY
Once the sauce has finished simmering, pour into a blender and blend until smooth. Return to the pot and place over a medium heat. (If you don’t have a blender, you can just leave the sauce chunky!)
TENDER, SAUCY Chicken
Rinse the Chicken to get rid of any residue from the packet and pat dry with paper towel. Submerge in the sauce and simmer for 5-6 minutes until cooked through, stirring occasionally. In the final 2 minutes, stir through the peas. On completion, season to taste with salt, pepper, and a sweetener of choice. Remove the pot from the heat.
