Chicken Jalfrezi

Well, it’s JUNE and we’re still freezing our hineys off over here.

How ’bout a steaming bowl of curry to warm your cockles whilst we wait for that sun to reappear?

This is a great little number.

Super quick to throw together, super low-calorie, packed with flavour.

And ‘flavour’ doesn’t just mean spice. A decent curry isn’t just one that blows your head off, if you ask me.

That being said… it’s totally up to you how spicy you make this.

Hot head? (Harry) Throw in a little extra chilli.

Slightly more delicate? (…Me). Go easy. Taste as you go.

You can always add more, but you can’t take away.

And if you’re the cook… YOU get to decide how spicy it turns out.

Those are the rules.
