    List of Ingredients




    2 sweet potatoes
    1 butternut squash
    4 large chicken joints, halved
    Salt and freshly ground black pepper
    Vegetable oil
    2 onions, finely chopped
    2 tomatoes, skinned, seeded and diced
    2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
    15g ( ½ oz) fresh root ginger, finely chopped
    6 cardamom seeds
    1 heaped teaspoon curry powder
    450ml ( ¾ pint) chicken stock
    2 sticks lemon grass, bruised
    2 small red chillies, finely chopped
    300 ml ( ½ pint) yogurt
    1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh coriander

    Recipe



    1.Parboil the sweet potatoes in their skins for about 10 minutes, then
    peel and cut into thick slices. Cut the squash into similar-sized
    pieces.

    2.Season the chicken pieces. Heat some vegetable oil in a large pan and
    fry the chicken for about 15 minutes until golden. Remove from the pan
    and keep warm. Add the onions to the pan and cook gently until soft,
    then add the tomatoes, garlic, ginger, cardamom and curry powder and
    cook for a few minutes. Return the chicken to the pan, add the stock and
    lemon grass, then cover and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the
    chicken is cooked through.

    3.Meanwhile, heat a little more vegetable oil in another pan and fry the
    pieces of sweet potato and squash over a medium heat for about 10
    minutes until slightly golden and crispy on the outside and soft on the
    inside. Keep warm.

    4.When the chicken is cooked, add the chopped chillies to the pan and
    cook for 2 minutes or so. Stir in the yogurt and heat through without
    boiling. Sprinkle with chopped coriander and serve with the sautéed
    sweet potatoes and squash.
