CHICKEN & LIME CURRY

Steps:

• Chop the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and place into a large bowl.
• Add the lime juice (1 lime), hot chilli powder (½ tsp) and paprika (1 tsp).
• Cover with cling film and leave to marinate while you prepare the rest of the curry.
• Place the curry paste ingredients into a pestle and mortar (2 cloves garlic, 1" cube ginger, 1 green chilli (stalk removed), 1 tbsp ground coriander, 1 tsp fenugreek, 1 tsp turmeric, 1 tbsp tomato purée) and bash until there are no large lumps.
• Slice the onions and roughly chop the red pepper into bite-sized chunks.
• Heat the olive oil (2 tsp) in a large saucepan. Once hot turn the heat down to low-medium and add the onions and cook for 15-20 minutes until soft and starting to brown. Stir them regularly to ensure they don't burn.
• Add the cumin seeds and cook for 1 minute.
• Add the red pepper, lime zest (1 lime), curry paste, passata (300ml) and water (200ml) and simmer for 20 minutes while the sauce thickens. Stir occasionally. Season with salt to taste.
• About 5 minutes before the sauce is cooked, cook the chicken. Heat a frying pan, add the chicken and cook for c. 5 minutes until it is piping hot all the way through. Turn it during cooking to ensure it cooks evenly.
• Once the chicken and sauce are cooked, stir the chicken into the sauce and serve. I like mine with rice or chapatis.

RED CURRY-LIME CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
• Spread the wings on two large rimmed baking sheets, then drizzle with olive oil, the juice of 1 lime and some salt and pepper, and toss to evenly coat. Bake the wings until browned and crisp, about 40 minutes.
• In a large bowl, mix the butter with the coconut milk, curry paste, honey, soy sauce, lime zest and the remaining lime juice. Add the wings to the butter and toss to coat. Add the cilantro, mint, peanuts and chiles, then toss to coat. Serve hot.

THAI CHICKEN CURRY

Steps:

• Peel shallots or onion and cut in half from top to root. Lay the cut sides flat on a board and thinly slice. Very finely slice the lemongrass, starting at the thinner end, stopping towards the base when it gets tough (often described as 'woody' and white in the centre).
• Heat the oil in a wok or large saucepan for a couple of minutes until the oil separates (it looks more liquid at this point). Add the shallots or onion. Fry for 3-5 mins, until soft and translucent. Stir in the curry paste and cook for 1 min, stirring all the time.
• Add chicken pieces and stir until they are coated. Add the lemongrass, fish sauce, sugar, lime leaves and coconut milk. Bring slowly to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 15 mins until the chicken is cooked. Stir the curry a few times while it cooks, to stop it sticking and to keep the chicken submerged.
• While the chicken is cooking, strip the leaves from the coriander stalks, gather into a pile and chop very roughly. Taste the curry and add a little more curry paste and salt if you think it needs it. Stir half the coriander into the curry and sprinkle the rest over the top. Serve with Thai jasmine or basmati rice.
