We always prefer to use boneless free-range chicken thigh fillets for curries - they stand up to strong flavours and reheat well, unlike breast which becomes dry and tough.

We marinate them first in ginger and garlic-infused yoghurt and then cooked in a tomato-based, gently spiced sauce (lots of sweet spices like cardamon and cinnamon, as well as cumin, chilli and garam masala) before being finished with a little cream, ground almonds and whole roasted cashew nuts. It's a big family favourite.

INDIVIDUAL SIZE:  If frozen: pierce film in several places then microwave for 2 minutes.  Peel back film, stir, replace film loosely and heat for a further 2 minutes.  If fresh: microwave for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Rest for one minute before serving

SMALL AND LARGE SIZE: Defrost before reheating. Empty into a saucepan and place over a gentle heat, stirring occasionally, till piping hot or empty into a microwave-safe container and heat for 2-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until piping hot.

Defrost information: Defrost overnight in the fridge. Once defrosted, keep refrigerated and consume within 48 hours.

For a quick defrost, place in a sink of warm water and ensure that the defrosted dish then reaches 70C (piping hot) within two hours of beginning the defrosting process.
