2tsp rapeseed oil
50g frozen diced onions

1tbsp frozen chopped ginger, or ½tbsp ginger paste
1tbsp tomato purée
½ x 200g jar Asda Balti Curry Paste (see TIP)

Method
1Heat the oil in a deep frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the onions and peppers for 2 mins until soft. Add the ginger, then add the tomato purée and curry paste. Mix well with the veg. Fill the curry paste jar with water and add to the pan (about 200ml). Bring to a bubble and simmer for 8-10 mins until thickened and saucy.
2Add the chicken, and cook for another 3-4 mins until piping hot. Serve with the cooked basmati rice and the naans.
3TIP: If using a different curry paste, check the jar instructions to see how much you need – it may not be half of the whole jar.
