Chicken curry
This simple chicken curry recipe from Alfred Prasad is a great way to introduce kids to Indian flavours. Alfred adapted this recipe especially for kids (as biting into large pieces of spice may be off-putting), but if making for older children or adults, add a few pieces each of cinnamon, cardamom and cloves to the oil in step 2 and sauté for half a minute before adding the onions.
