Homemade chicken curry, rice and nann.

Made my usual Chicken Korma curry for tea the other night, really simple recipe which takes roughly half an hour cooking time and about 10 minutes prep time.I used to buy the ready made Korma's from Asda as none of the kids like the curries Leigh or I make as they are too spicy for them but this is much better than Asda and the kids wolf it down.
Recipe below.

If curry is not thick enough then remove lid and simmer for a bit longer.

Pour olive oil onto the worktop and empty the bowl of dough onto the oil to stop it sticking, cut into 4 pieces, roll into balls then flatten to about 1/4 inch.Heat the skillet or large frying pan to a medium/high heat, place one nann in the skillet and cook until coloured on that side then flip over,cook until both sides are a nice deep colour.This takes a couple of minutes each side.Serve warm.
