Great for planning ahead. This mild Chicken Korma slow cooker recipe is more time-consuming than most Spice Pot recipes but worth the extra effort!
Ingredients
2 garlic cloves Thumb-sized piece of ginger, peeled 2 large onions, finely chopped 2 tbsp vegetable oil 6 skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into large chunks 2 tbsp tomato puree 4 tsp of Korma 2 tsp sugar 300ml chicken stock 150ml double cream 6 tbsp ground almonds Toasted flaked almonds, rice and naan bread (optional)
Method
Put the garlic, ginger and onions in a blender with a little water and whizz to create a paste.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and sear the chicken.
Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside, then add the onion paste to the pan and fry for 10 minutes on a medium heat until lightly golden.
Stir in the tomato puree, Korma spices, 1 tsp of salt and the sugar, and fry for 1 minute.
Add the chicken back to the pan along with the chicken stock.
Stir and bring to a simmer and then spoon in to the slow cooker.
Cook on low for 5-6 hours until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
Stir through the cream and ground almonds.
Scatter with flaked almonds if using and then serve with rice and naans.
