Simple Chicken Saag from Patak's

Ingredients

450g chicken cut into 1" cubes

2 tbsp vegetable oil

2 tbsp single cream

100g onions, finely chopped

250g canned chopped tomatoes

1 tsp cumin seeds

3 tbsp Patak's Balti Paste

75g spinach, chopped

175ml water

1 tbsp fresh mint, chopped

1 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped

Methods

Heat the oil in a pan and fry the cumin seeds, add the onions and saute until translucent.

Add the chicken and cook for 3 minutes before adding the Patak's Balti Paste. Sprinkle in some water, stir and fry for 2-3 minutes.

Add the tomatoes and water, partially cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Boil off any excess water if you prefer your dishes less saucy.

Stir in the spinach and mint. Add the cream and coriander.

Serve with Patak's Naan Breads.
