Fragrant chicken curry with chickpeas. #easy.
Need something spicy to get you through the week? Yes, you do!
This is an easy chicken curry but I have sexed it up with coconut milk…adulterated from BBCgoodfood.
You need for 4 fashionista or 25 models:
2 onions, quartered
3 fat garlic cloves
3cm/¼in piece fresh ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
2 tbsp (medium) curry powder or a handful of curry leaves.
½ tsp turmeric
2 tsp paprika
1 fresh red chilli, seeded and roughly chopped
20g packet fresh coriander
1 chicken stock cube
425ml/¾ pint boiling water or a can of coconut milk
4 skinless boneless chicken fillets ..cubed
400g can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
Added accessories : Broccoli, yogurt, basmati rice, naan bread.
• Slip into Hermes grey cashmere leisure suit.
• Pull on snazzy white Saint Laurent trainers.
• Pour a big fat glass of wine.
• Inhale.
• Ask George Clooney to toss the onions, garlic, ginger, ground spices, chilli and half the coriander into a food processor.
• Add 1 teaspoon salt and then blend to a purée.
• Toss the mixture into a medium saucepan and cook over a low heat for 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
• I think you should add some moisturising peanut oil or a dash of chicken stock otherwise the spices will stick to the pan.
• You can chop up the chicken into chic bite size pieces as small as your discipline in Prada.
• Now open the can of coconut milk/cream OR
• OR crumble the stock cube into the curry and pour over boiling water and return to the boil.
• Throw in the chicken, stir, then lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes until the chicken is tender as George Clooney on hot summer night in Como.
• Now is the time to cook the rice.
• Now is the time for more wine.
• Open up the can of chickpeas, drain and then throw into the curry.
• Toss in some coriander and if you want some Broccoli or beans or spinach.
• Heat through until vegetables are just cooked.
• Spoon onto a chic white platter.
• Accessorise with lots of coriander.
• Serve with yogurt, basmati rice and naan bread.
• Yum
