1 tsp curry powder
400 ml chicken stock
300 g passata
680 g skinless cooked turkey, cut into bite-size chunks
140 g sugar snap peas
350 g dried basmati rice
salt and pepper
110 g fat-free natural fromage frias
roughly chopped fresh coriander, to garnish
a pinch of paprika, to garnish

For the curry paste
1/2 small pack of fresh coriander, roughly chopped

Pour in the stock and passata, bring to the boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 12-15 min. Add the cooked turkey and sugar snap peas, stir and cook 4-5 min, until the turkey is piping hot. Meanwhile, cook the rice according to the packet instructions.

Season the curry, remove from the heat and stir in the fromage frais. Garnish the with coriander and paprika and serve with the rice.
