Ingredients

  • 2 onions, finely sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tbsp medium curry powder*
  • 2 tsp turmeric
  • 2 chicken stock cubes

Method

  • Place a non-stick saucepan over a medium-high heat, add the onions and a splash of water and cook for 8 minutes or until softened.
  • Stir in the garlic, curry powder, turmeric and another splash of water and cook for 1 minute. Add 1 litre boiling water and the crumbled stock cubes, give it a stir, then simmer gently for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, spray a non-stick frying pan with low-calorie cooking spray and place over a medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5 minutes. Add the peppers, green beans and peas and cook for 3-4 minutes.
