Recipe for Rogan Josh



This one takes a little work, but well worth it! This is delicious!!

Ingredients (serves 2)

Curry
420g chicken (about 3-4 breast)
2 onions
1 chilli (optional)
4 cloves of garlic
1 bunch of coriander
100g baby spinach
250g coconut cream

Curry paste
Paste can be bought from any major super market, Patak's is a good option, but not Paleo so I made my own.
2 cloves of garlic / a thumb-sized piece of fresh root ginger / 75g roasted peppers, from a jar / 1 tablespoon paprika  / 2 teaspoons garam masala / 1 teaspoon turmeric / ½ teaspoon sea salt / 2 tablespoons olive oil / 2 tablespoons tomato purée / 1 fresh red chilli / a small bunch of fresh coriander
Spices for toasting - 2 teaspoons cumin seeds / 2 teaspoons coriander seeds / 1 teaspoon black peppercorns



1. Toast the spices in a dry frying pan for a couple of minutes until they smell amazing.
2. Add the toasted spices to all other ingredients and blend in a food processor 

Carrot salad and Cauliflower rice
3-4 Large carrots
1/2 fresh chilli
small bunch of coriander
2cm ginger
1 lemon

1 Cauliflower

1. Brown the chicken in a frying pan

2. Heat the onions and garlic in a pan with a splash of water and a glug of olive oil in a larger soup pan.

3. Discard the fat in the chicken pan and add the chicken to onions and garlic!

4. Add the chilli (optional), half the coriander and the curry paste with the chicken and heat hard and fast. Add more water depending on the consistency you like.

5. Grate the carrots into a nice bowl and finely grate in half a chilli, ginger and lemon zest. Squeeze in half the lemon and take to the table

6. Brake up the cauliflower in a bowl and heat in a microwave checking on it every minute.

7. Check the curry and add water if needed. Take the heat down for the curry and stir in the coconut cream and the spinach. Stir until the spinach has wilted.

8. Mash up the cauliflower and season to taste. Take the curry and the cauliflower to the table, garnish with some more coriander to be fancy and enjoy!!!
