Ingredients

  • 500g bone-in chicken thighs
  • 2 medium white onions, finely diced
  • 1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 fresh green chili, finely diced
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 cloves
  • 2 inch cinnamon stick
  • 3 green cardamoms
  • 60ml tomato passata
  • 120ml plain yoghurt, whisked until smooth
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/8 tsp turmeric powder
  • ¼ tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • ½ tsp red chili powder
  • 1.5 cups fresh methi/fenugreek leaves
  • 22g OatWell Original Oat Bran Powder
  • 1 tsp kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves)

Directions

  1. Remove the methi leaves from the stalks. Place in a colander and wash a few times to remove any dirt and grit. Leave to drain and chop.


  2. Add in the ginger and garlic paste and cook for a couple of minutes.

  3. Turn the heat down completely and add in the tumeric and chilli powder and cook for 30 seconds. Add in the chicken. Turn the heat up to a medium heat and fry the chicken off for 3-4 minutes, turning so all sides are browned. Cover the pan and cook for a further 4-5 minutes until the chicken is cooked and tender.

  4. Add in the tomato passata, plain yoghurt and salt. Cover the pan again and cook for another 3-4 minutes.

  5. Stir in the garam masala, fresh fenugreek leaves, kasuri methi and OatWell Original Oat Bran Powder. Cover and cook for a couple of minutes.

  6. Serve with naan and/or steamed basmati rice.
