Add more frylight to the pan then cook the onion, chilli & garlic, cook for a few minutes until the onions are soft. Add the cumin, coriander, turmeric & madras curry powder & mix, add the tomatoes, herb stockpot & cook for a few minutes, mixing well.
Return the chicken to the pan, add the tomato puree, chicken stock & season with the S & P, cook for 20-30 mins until the chicken is cooked through, in the meantime cook the rice of your choice.
(I also had some snap peas with mine)
* If you like a hotter curry then leave the chilli seeds in!
