Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the roughly chopped onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 6 minutes until softened.
-
Step 2.
Add the crushed ginger and garlic to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring, until the onions are soft and golden brown.
-
Step 3.
Add the garam masala, ground coriander, ground turmeric, chopped green chillies, and cubed chicken breasts. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes to seal the chicken and coat it in the spices.
-
Step 4.
Add the chopped mango, salt, and 400ml (14 fl oz) of boiling water to the pan. Stir to combine, then bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover with a lid, and cook for 12 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened and reduced.
-
Step 5.
Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the sugar, ground almonds, crème fraîche, and finely chopped fresh coriander. Serve hot with cooked rice or flatbreads.
