Low fat Natural Yoghurt 120ml
Onion 100g
Mild chillies 2
Garlic 1 clove
Fry light
Ground coriander 10g
Garam Masala 10g
Ground tumeric 10g
Chicken stock 120ml
Coconut milk 100g
Ground almonds (optional) 40g
Lemon Juice 1/2 a lemon
Salt n pepper
Method

2, Finely chop the onion, garlic and chilliesand sweat off with fry light.
3, Remove from the pan and puree
4, Add the spices to the pan with another spritz or 2 of fry light and cook until they release there frangrance.
5, Add the chicken and cook on a low heat for a few mins.
6, Add the puree and cook for a further 5-6 mins.
7, Stir in the stock and coconut milk, season with salt and pepper and continue to simmer for a further 15mins
8, Stir in the almonds and lemon juice and serve.
Rather than serving this dish with rice, serve with cauliflour rice. Basically get a head of cauliflour and blitz untill it looks like rice, then blitz in the microwave for a few mins untill soft.
This recipe should be divided into 4 portions and each portion contains roughly 420kcals. And its yummy !
