The Theory of the Sweet Science
The Theory of the Sweet Science
This is a great Indian recipe that is low in fat but high in protein and nutrients and only takes minimal time to prepare. It just exemplifies one of those meals that you can cook that’s very healthy without sacrificing taste. I consider this is what people struggle with; they think to eat low fat you have to eat food that tastes like crap. As you can clearly see, there's a great selection of fresh, clean, healthy ingredients here to prepare this food from - which all has great flow on benefits to your health.
1. Chop the onions into quarters and place in a food blender.
2. Then add the cashews nuts, tomato puree, garam-masala, chilli powder, turmeric, lemon juice, garlic clove, yogurt, coriander stalks (keep the leaves aside) and sea-salt to the blender and process it all until smooth. This is your sauce.
3. Put a pan on medium heat and add the oil. Slice the mushrooms finely and fry until softened and reduced.
4. Add the cashew nut sauce to the pan with the mushrooms and stir, then add your cubed chicken and stir for about half a minute.
5. Add the water to the pan, stir and bring to the boil. Then let it simmer for about half an hour with the lid off. Make sure you stir it often. It should reduce down and shouldn’t be too fluid and it will develop a nice texture.
Serve with some brown or white rice and sprinkle the coriander leaves over the top.
