Chicken tikka masala

Heat the oil and butter in a large, lidded casserole on the hob, then add the onions and a pinch of salt. Cook for 15-20 mins until soft and golden. Add the paste and peppers, then cook for 5 mins more to cook out the rawness of the spices. Add the chicken and stir well to coat in the paste. Cook for 2 mins, then tip in the tomatoes, purée and 200ml water. Cover with a lid and gently simmer for 15 mins, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the lid, stir through the mango chutney, cream and yogurt, then gently warm through. Season, then set aside whatever you want to freeze (see tips, below). Scatter the rest with coriander leaves and serve with basmati rice and naan bread.

Make the joloff-spiced butter. Pound the garlic, some sea salt, the thyme and lime zest using a pestle and mortar, then add the spices and the butter and pound more. Add the lime juice gradually, then set aside.

To make the stuffing, heat the butter in a saucepan, add the onion and cook until soft. Add the rice and stir for 1 min, then add enough water to cover by about 2cm and bring to the boil. Boil until the surface of the rice looks ‘pitted’, then turn the heat down very low, cover and cook for 15 mins until the rice is almost cooked (it will cook further inside the chicken). Transfer to a mixing bowl and leave to cool. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.

Heat the groundnut oil in a frying pan and cook the sweet potato until golden. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for another 2 mins, then add the tomatoes and season. Cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes are soft and the sweet potato is almost tender. Leave to cool, then tip into the bowl with the rice and add the lime juice.

Put the chicken in a roasting tin and carefully loosen the skin over the breast by gently pulling it up and inserting your fingers between the skin and the flesh. Push half of the butter in under the skin, spreading it out with your hands. Season the chicken inside, then spoon the rice stuffing right down into the cavity. Spread the rest of the butter over the top of the chicken, then season. Roast for 1 hr 20 mins. To check it’s cooked, insert a skewer in where the thigh meets the body – the juices should run clear.

Meanwhile, to make the sauce, heat the oil in a saucepan and cook the onion until soft. Add the garlic, ginger and spices and cook for another 2 mins, then add the water or stock and the tomatoes. Season. Bring to the boil, add the sugar and the chillies, then turn down the heat and simmer gently for 30 mins. Add the peanut butter and cook, stirring, for another 12 mins. Add more water if it’s too thick, then add the lime juice to taste and check the seasoning. You may want to add more sugar.

When it’s cooked, leave the chicken to rest, covered with foil, for 15 mins, then serve with the peanut sauce and green vegetables on the side.

Slash the flesh of the chicken pieces roughly 1cm apart. Put the chicken and all the first marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Leave in the fridge for at least 2 hrs, and up to 4 hrs.

Blend all the ingredients for the second marinade together. Remove the chicken from the first marinade and put it in a clean bowl. Add the second marinade and rub it into the chicken, then chill in the fridge for at least 4 hrs.

Light a barbecue with a lid, load the coals on one side and get them to a point where they are white-hot, then let them cool a little. Don’t put the chicken directly over the heat, otherwise the spices will burn. Barbecue on a medium heat with the lid on for 10-15 mins or until cooked through, turning them once. (Or heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and cook the chicken on a baking tray for 30 mins or until cooked through.) Sprinkle with mint and spoon over some green chutney, if you like. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.
