Chicken with coriander and tomato

This was a quick little curry for just me, but It should be quite easy to adjust for more people.



Ingredients
1 good quality chicken breast ('cubed')
A big bunch of coriander leaves
Fresh chopped tomatoes (whatever you see fit as being the right size portion for one person)
1 fairly large clove of garlic
2-3 small green chillies
About a tablespoon of garam masala
Olive oil
Salt

Chop up your garlic, coriander and chillies, combine with the garam masala, then grind it all down to a paste with a pestle and mortar.

Heat up some oil in a pan, add the coriander paste, and fry in the oil for about 30 seconds. Add the chicken and give it all a good stir, making sure all the chicken is coated. After a couple of minutes, add the tomatoes with a little bit of water and a pinch of salt. Keep stirring on a medium heat and after about 10 minutes or so you should get something that resembles the photo above.

Chicken with coriander and chilli



I'm not really in the mood for writing recipes at the moment, and in any case this is quite easy. Just fry a spoonfull of curry paste in some oil for a few minutes, add some chicken, then some chopped garlic, 5 or 6 sliced small red chillies (depending on how you want it, mine was double hot!), and a load of chopped coriander. Stir in about half a cup of water and keep stirring until the chicken is cooked.
