What you'll need...

  • 4 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
  • 2 tsp ginger, peeled and grated
  • 3 tbsp medium curry powder
  • ½ tsp chilli flakes (add more for extra heat!)
  • 400ml reduced fat coconut milk
  • 100g mango chutney
  • 1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
  • 1kg chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Naan bread, to serve
  • Rice, to serve
  • Fresh coriander, optional

Method

  1. Once all your ingredients are chopped, add everything minus the garam masala into the slow cooker. Stir to mix and ensure even distribution of ingredients. 

  2. Cook on high heat for 4 hours or low for 6-8 hours.  

  3. When the chicken is cooked and tender, feel free to shred the chicken if desired. Stir in the garam masala, add a pinch of salt and pepper if you wish, and stir to ensure an even coverage. If the sauce is too watery, add a small amount of cornflour to thicken it up. If it’s too thick, add a splash of water. 

  4. Serve alongside freshly cooked, fluffy rice and naan bread. If you enjoy coriander, sprinkle on top.
