1
parsnip
1
carrot
1 cup
basmati rice
1
onion
1 knob
ginger
1 packet
chicken breast strips
1 packet
tomato paste
1 tin
coconut milk
1 sachet
Chicken-Style Stock Powder
1 bunch
coriander
2 clove
garlic
1 packet

1 sachet
Mild North Indian Spice Blend
olive oil
1.5 cup
water (for the rice)
¼ cup
water (for the curry)
Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut the parsnip into small chunks. Cut the carrot into bite-sized chunks. Place the veggies on a lined oven tray and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread out evenly and roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.
While the veggies are roasting, add the water (for the rice) to a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. Add the basmati rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek.
While the rice is cooking, finely chop the brown onion and garlic. Finely grate the ginger. Roughly chop the Asian greens. Cut the chicken breast strips into 2cm chunks.
In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat. Cook the chicken, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil (if needed). Cook the onion until softened, 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger and mild North Indian spice blend. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and stir to combine. Add the coconut milk, water (for the curry) and chicken-style stock powder. Stir to combine.
Return the chicken (plus any resting juices) to the frying pan and simmer until the curry has thickened, 2-3 minutes. Add the Asian greens and roasted veggies and stir until the greens have wilted. Season to taste.
Roughly chop the coriander. Divide the basmati rice between bowls and top with the Indian coconut chicken and veggie curry. Garnish with the coriander.
