Most savvy-slimmers know that a korma is just about the most calorific curry you can order thanks to cream being one of its main ingredients. Well, here's the Scottish Slimmers version. Just as tasty as the real thing but nowhere near as costly in calories!
Directions
1Cook onions in a frying pan sprayed with oil until soft and golden. Add a little water if necessary to prevent sticking. Transfer to a blender or food processor together with the evaporated milk and curry paste. Blitz until smooth. Transfer to a small saucepan.
2Cut chicken breasts into cubes. Re-spray frying pan and heat. Add chicken and cook 5-10 minutes, or until cooked through, stirring frequently.
3Meanwhile, heat the sauce over moderate heat 3-5 minutes, stirring continuously. If it becomes too thick, stir in 1-2 tbsp skimmed milk . Stir in dessicated coconut and season to taste.
4Stir cooked chicken into sauce and serve sprinkled with toasted flaked almonds.
