Ingredients

    Spice Paste:

    2 cloves of garlic
    1 tsp freshly grated ginger
    1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
    1 tsp garam masala
    1/2 teaspoon sea salt
    2 tbsp oil (I used olive oil, you could use peanut oil)
    1 tbsp tomato paste
    2 tbsp desiccated coconut
    2 tbsp almonds
    1 cup fresh cilantro (coriander) leaves
    1 tsp ground cilantro (coriander) seeds
    2 tsp cumin seeds

    Other ingredients:

    2 small onions, diced
    4 chicken breasts, cubed
    1 can light coconut cream

Directions

To make the paste - add the garlic and grated ginger to a dry pan and lightly toast over low to medium heat. The garlic and ginger are finished when they smell fragrant and are lightly browned.

Combine all of the spice paste ingredients together in a food processor or blender and pulse until a thick paste.

Put the paste into a frying pan over medium heat and saute until browned and fragrant.

Add onions and lightly brown.

Add chicken and stir until browned.

Add the coconut cream and simmer uncovered until the chicken is cooked and the sauce has thickened.

Serve over rice.
