Cooking Steps
1
- Add 300ml cold salted water (double for 4p) to a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid.
- Stir in the rice and bring to the boil.
- Once boiling, lower the heat to medium, cover with the lid and cook for 10 mins.
- Once cooked, remove the pot from the heat.
- Keep covered for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
2
- Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
- Trim half the cucumber (double for 4p), then quarter lengthways. Chop widthways into small pieces.
- Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
- Quarter the lemon.
- Drain and rinse the beans in a sieve. Mash half with a fork.
3
- Place a large pot over medium-high heat with 1 tbsp butter (double for 4p) and a drizzle of oil.
- When hot, add half the chopped onion and fry until softened, 4-5 mins.
- Add the North Indian spice mix and fry until fragrant, 1 min.
- Pour in the chopped tomatoes and beans (both mashed and whole).
- Cover and simmer for 10-12 mins. Add the garam masala when the curry has 2 mins left to simmer.
4
- Meanwhile, in a bowl mix the chopped cucumber, remaining chopped onion and half the coriander.
- Season to taste with salt, pepper and lemon juice.
5
- Pour half the creme fraiche into the curry.
- Cook, stirring, until warmed through, 1-2 mins.
- Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.
- Add a splash of water to loosen the curry if you feel it's too thick.
6
- Divide the curry between bowls with spoonfuls of fluffy rice.
- Squeeze over lemon juice to taste.
- Top with remaining coriander and creme fraiche.
- Serve with refreshing cucumber salad alongside.
