Method

  1. 1

    Heat the vegetable oil in a pan and fry the onion for 6 minutes until softened, then add the garlic cloves and fresh ginger and fry for 1 minute.

  2. 2

    Add the chicken pieces and brown for 6 minutes, then stir in the ground turmeric and chilli powder.

  3. 3

    Whisk the natural yoghurt until smooth and stir it in a spoonful at a time so it doesn't split, then cover and simmer for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is tender and cooked through with no pink remaining.

  4. 4

    Uncover and simmer for 5 minutes to thicken the sauce.

  5. 5

    Scatter with the fresh coriander and serve with rice.
