Chicken Vindaloo
We often get asked "When will you make a vindaloo sauce?" Well today we'd decided to turn up the heat a little and give the chilli charmers a recipe to savour. We're actually using one of our milder bases, the Karahi for this recipe because it is one of the most versatile in the range and works well with many dishes. A vindaloo is normally hot to very hot in heat so you will need to have a few hot green or red chillis. Our recommendation would be to use green because the flavour of these is so much more rounded. The heat level is a personal choice so feel free to add more chillies if you're really up for it!

Chicken Vindaloo

Ingredients

  • 500g of chicken
  • Small handful coriander

  4. Add the chilli flakes, garlic and the green chillies at this point and stir fry for one minute. 

  5. Add the jar of Karahi sauce. Swirl out the jar with 50ml water and add this to the pan. 

  6. Add the garam masala, salt (optional), bring to the boil and cook for 6-7 minutes on a high heat.
