Ingredients

1 tbsp sunflower oil

1 medium onion, chopped

2 level tsp mild curry powder

2 level tsp garam masala

500g Asda Butcher's Selection Lean Steak Mince

2 level tbsp tomato purée

4 dried apricots, chopped

250g new potatoes, quartered or halved, depending on size

2 level tbsp Asda Mango Chutney, plus extra to serve

250g frozen peas

2 level tbsp cornflour

200g brown basmati rice

Method

1
Heat the oil in a pan and cook the onion until soft. Stir in the curry powder and garam masala and cook over a low heat for 1 minute, stirring.
2
Add the mince and cook until it browns, stirring to break up the clumps. Add the tomato purée, apricots, potatoes and 350ml water. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
3
Add the chutney and peas. Bring back to the boil, cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Mix the cornflour with 4 tbsp cold water and stir in. Simmer for 2 minutes and serve, or, if not eating straight away, leave to cool, then refrigerate.
4
If eating later, re-heat the curry until it's thoroughly heated through. Rinse the rice in a sieve. Put in a pan with 800ml water and a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 20 minutes, or until tender. Drain.
5
Serve the curry and rice with a side dish of mango chutney.
