    1 Spray a large non-stick frying pan with oil and set over a medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 min or until soft. Add the curry powder, chilli and tomatoes and cook for a further 5 min or until the tomatoes have cooked down. Carefully transfer the mixture to a food processor with the stock and blend until smooth.

    2 Clean the pan, then return it to a medium-high heat and spray with oil. Add the chicken and cook for 6–8 min until golden and almost cooked through. Add the blended sauce and simmer for 15 min. Stir in the spinach and half of the yoghurt, then simmer for 2–3 min until the spinach has wilted. Meanwhile, heat the rice according to the pack instructions.

    3 Stir most of the coriander into the curry. Serve with the rice, topped with the remaining yoghurt and the rest of the coriander.
