Sweet & Sour Tomato Curry Recipe

You Need:

• 1 small onion - finely chopped
• 3 cloves of garlic - finely grated or crushed
• 500g tomatoes (any type) - roughly chopped
• 1 chilli (any colour) (optional) - finely chopped
• 10g bunch of coriander (optional) - finely chopped

Method:

• Toast the crushed peanuts in a dry pan, stirring regularly, for 3 minutes or until they start to turn golden-brown all over, then remove and leave to one side
• Fry the onion in 3 tbsp oil for 10 minutes or until soft and translucent
• Add the garlic, ½ of the tomatoes, the chilli (if using), tomato puree, vinegar, sugar, TOMATO CURRY BLEND and ½ tsp salt, then cover and cook for 15 minutes or until the tomatoes have broken down to make a thick sauce, mashing the tomatoes up slightly as they cook and adding a splash of water if necessary
• Stir in the remaining tomatoes then cover and cook for 5 minutes or until they just start to soften
• Stir in the coriander (if using) and sprinkle over the toasted peanuts, then serve with the rice, greens and dal and/or yogurt on the side
