Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7, then take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air
Cut your potatoes (skins on) into chunky chips, then add to a baking tray with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a generous pinch of salt and give everything a good mix up
Put the tray in the oven for 20-25 min or until golden and crispy – these are your chunky chips
Crush your cardamom pod[s] open by squashing it with the side of a knife
Add your garam masala and crushed cardamom pod[s] to a bowl with your ground turmeric
Add your ginger & garlic paste and chicken stock mix to the bowl along with 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] vegetable oil and stir everything together – this is your Keralan-style marinade
Add the chicken thighs to the marinade and give everything a good mix up – this is your Keralan-style marinated chicken
Add the Keralan-style marinated chicken to a tin foil-lined baking tray
Put the tray in the oven for 17-18 min or until cooked through (no pink meat!) – this is your Keralan-style chicken
While the chicken is cooking, heat a large, dry, wide-based pan over a medium-low heat
Once hot, add your cashew nuts and cook for 2-3 min or until toasted and lightly golden
Tip: Watch them like a hawk to make sure they don't burn!
Once done, transfer the toasted cashews to a large bowl
Cut your cucumber in to quarters lengthways, then chop into pieces
Add the chopped cucumber to the toasted cashews along with your white wine vinegar, a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and give everything a good mix up – this is your cucumber & cashew salad
Combine your tamarind paste with your mayo in a bowl – this is your tamarind mayo
Slice your red chilli[es] into rounds
Serve the Keralan-style chicken with the chunky chips, cucumber & cashew salad and tamarind mayo to the side
Garnish with sliced red chilli (can't handle the heat? Go easy!)
Enjoy!
