- 1 onion roughly chopped,
- 0.5-1 red chilli deseeded and roughly chopped,
- 2 cloves garlic crushed,
- 2 tbsp mild curry powder
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 3 cm ginger peeled and roughly chopped,
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 500 g chicken thighs skinless and boneless, cut into 2-3 cm pieces,
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 400 ml coconut milk
- 150 ml stock (chicken or vegetable)
- 150 g raisins
- 50 g ground almonds
- 2 bananas small and not overripe, peeled and cut into half-slices
- fresh parsley chopped
Put the onion, chilli, garlic, curry, turmeric and ginger into a food processor or blender and whizz everything together until you get a paste. You may have to add 1 tbsp of olive oil if the paste is too difficult to whizz.
In a heavy pan, heat up the olive oil, add the paste and fry it stirring for 1 minute.
Add the chicken pieces and fry them for 5 minutes on medium heat, stirring often to coat in the paste and prevent from burning.
Add the cinnamon stick, coconut milk and stock, bring everything to boil and cook for approx. 20 minutes.
Stir in the raisins and almonds, check the seasoning and add bananas.
Serve with rice sprinkled with chopped parsley.
