A lovely, spicy curry with added potatoes for a bit of a variety. This is free on No Count. If tracking, you would just need to point the potatoes you used.
Ingredients (serves 4):
- 4 chicken breasts, chopped into chunks and seasoned
- 8 potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- an onion, thinly sliced
- 4 garlic cloves, crushed
- a small piece of ginger, peeled and grated
- 1 – 3 chillies (depending on how hot you would like it)
- a cinnamon stick
- 5 cloves
- a tbsp garam masala
- a tsp turmeric
- a tbsp ground coriander
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
- 400g tin of chopped tomatoes
- 400ml chicken stock
- a packet of green beans; chop them in half
Method:
- Spray a wok/deep frying pan with Frylight and cook the cinnamon stick, cloves and onion for 5 mins.
- Add the garlic, ginger and chillies (sliced) and cook for a further 2 mins.
- Add the tomatoes, chicken, stock, spices and fresh coriander. Bring to the boil and simmer for 20 mins, with a lid on.
- Add the potatoes and green beans, season well, and cook for a further 15-20 mins, or until the potatoes are cooked.
- Enjoy!
Do you think I could use passata instead of chopped tomatoes? I don’t like bits so usually make a curry with mayflower curry sauce (I’m weird lol ) but making my usual curry yesterday was 6 points.
Morning Jenny, it should be fine using passata – and it would be great saving you those points too. Hope you have a lovely day, 💕 Helen xxxx
Hi Helen, made this tonight with a ton of veg, was delicious! Thanks for the recipe, Kath xx

I was thinking of trying chickpeas instead of potatoes – what do you think? Xx

Hi Mary! It’s so good to hear you all enjoyed the curry. Hope you have a fab weekend! Helen xxx
I made this the other night and it was amazing, I added peppers and mushrooms to the recipe and used less potatoes. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe. Can’t wait to make it again
Hi Jemima, what a great idea to add the peppers and mushrooms too – I’ll try that next time. Hope you have a lovely long weekend! Helen xxx
Would this work in the slow cooker? Looks yum
Hi Nicola, this should be fine in a slow cooker. Enjoy! Helen xxx
It is indeed yummy in the slow cooker. Prepared it this morning minus the potatoes and was delicious tonight. Even my little boy ate it- so much nicer to serve up good tasty food and know exactly what’s in it. Loved it! Thank u 👍
That’s great news – especially that your little boy enjoyed it too. Eating fewer processed foods is one of the things I love about No Count and I’m sure that’s helped contribute to the weight loss too. Thank you very much for the feedback and I hope you all enjoy the next recipe you try:-) Helen xxx
Tonight’s dinner !
Enjoy! Helen xxx
