Prep Time 5 mins
Cook Time 20 mins
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 0.5 bag Dopiaza Curry Kit
  • 15-20 pieces cooked chicken (chicken tikka is best), beef lamb or paneer pieces
  • 4 tbsp vegetable oil Do not use any less or use any less calorie substitutions such as fry light. It will turn the dish bitter.
  • 1 onion roughly chopped into chunks
  • 1 pepper roughly chopped into chunks
  • 300 ml chicken or vegetable stock
  • 300 g tomato passata
  • 1 bunch freshly chopped coriander optional garnish
  • 1 tbsp crispy onions optional garnish

Instructions
 

  • Cook your meat/paneer of choice. I always recommend chicken tikka using my tikka spice blend, for this dish.
  • Combine 60g (approx 8 tbsp) of the curry kit and 200ml of hot water. Leave to sit for 4 minutes so that the mix can soak up the water.
  • Add 1 tbsp vegetable oil into a pan and cook the onions and peppers in 0.5 tsp of salt until the onions turn slightly golden. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Add 3 tbsp vegetable oil into the same pan onto a medium-low heat and after 30 seconds, add the mix and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add 200ml of chicken or vegetable stock and cook for 3 minutes, continuing to stir frequently.
  • Add 300g of passata and cook on a medium heat for 5 minutes, cover, stirring occasionally.
  • Add cooked meat or paneer, the part cooked onions and peppers along with 100ml chicken stock, cover and cook on a medium-low heat for 6 minutes, stirring every two minutes.
  • Serve with a chopped coriander and crispy onion garnish.
