Tailored to Taste
It’s traditionally a mild dish which is why we recommend using our Khulna BANG flavour. Add cream for a touch of luxury at the end of cooking.
Directions
Step 1
Chop it!
Finely chop the onion and finely grate the garlic and ginger. Gently fry in a pan with a splash of oil. Keep on a low heat for approximately 4 minutes until the mixture turns translucent.
Top tip: if you find the mixture sticking to the pan, add a splash of water.
Step 2
Spice it!
In a bowl, combine BANG!'s spices with 50ml of water. Blend into a smooth, thick paste. Pour the paste into the pan and continue on a low heat for approximately 4 minutes. This will magically turn into your curry sauce! For an even richer sauce, add 2 diced tomatoes or half a can of tinned tomatoes.
Top tip: look out for oils emerging from the same, then move onto step 3.
Step 3
Make it yours!
Add the chicken pieces and raise the heat for about 3 minutes. Keep stirring the chicken until the outside of the chicken is sealed. Add up to 200ml of hot water, lower heat and simmer until cooked. Add a generous helping of natural yoghurt or cream in the last 15 minutes of cooking.
Optional extra: finish by garnishing with chopped coriander.
