In a pan, sprayed with frylight, cook the chicken until the meat goes white, remove & set aside.
 Cook the onion until it’s soft, add the chilli flakes, curry powder, pepper, lemon juice, sweetener, milk, soy sauce & passata, mix well, add the peanut butter, heat until it starts to thicken, return the chicken to the pan & simmer on a low heat for 10 mins or until the chicken is cooked through.

While the chicken is cooking, add the rice to a saucepan, add 3 times the quantity of water & turmeric (for colouring), add a pinch of salt, cook until the water has been absorbed, remove from the heat, tip into a sieve & run under a hot tap. Place the sieve on top of the saucepan, add the peas, cover with a lid & return to the cooker & on a low light allow to steam for a few minutes. Plate up.
