6 cardamom pods

2 tsp freshly grated ginger

2 garlic cloves (crushed)

Method

1
Mix the chicken with the Tandoori spice blend, yogurt and lime juice in a large, non-metallic dish. Cover and leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight, stirring occassionally.
2
Pre-heat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking parchment and put the chicken on it, wiping off excess marinade with a brush (reserve leftover marinade). Bake for 10 minutes.
3
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large pan, add the cinnamon and cardamom, and cook for 1 minute. Add the garlic, ginger and onion and cook for 10 minutes, stirring.
4
Stir in the saved marinade, tomato paste, coconut milk and 100ml water. Halve the tomatoes, and scoop out and discard the seeds. Chop, add to the pan and bring to the boil. Stir in the garam masala and the chicken. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer gently for 10 minutes.
5
Serve with the coriander, rice and poppadums (optional).
