Method

  1. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and mix with the yogurt, half the curry powder and the cumin. Marinate for 30 minutes (or overnight in the fridge).
  2. Heat the grill to high. Spread the chicken on a foil-lined tray and grill for 8–10 minutes, turning once, until charred at the edges.
  3. Meanwhile, peel and chop the onion, crush the garlic and grate the ginger. Soften the onion in the oil for 6 minutes, then add the garlic, ginger, turmeric, paprika and the rest of the curry powder for 1 minute.
  4. Add the passata and simmer for 15 minutes until thick.
  5. Stir in the cream and the chicken and simmer for 5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
  6. Scatter with chopped coriander and serve with the warm rice.
