Recipe
Step 1
Prepare the base
Soak the onion, garlic and ginger mix in tepid water for 5 min.
Gently fry with a flavourless oil on a low heat until soft, golden and aromatic.
Step 2
Build the sauce
Mix Tikka spices with 50ml water to make a runny paste. Pour into the pan with the heated onion base and continue heating gently.
Wait until the spicy mixture release their oils and add the tomatoes and wait for the oils to separate again.
Step 3
Add chicken and potatoes
Add chicken pieces and increase heat to lightly sear.
Reduce to a simmer, add potatoes and coconut milk.
Cover and cook gently until chicken is cooked through and potatoes tender.
Simmer uncovered to thicken, adding water if needed.
Chef's Tip:
For extra depth, lightly char the chicken before adding to the sauce.
