A Fakeaway Friday Treat. Glasgow is renowned for it's love of curry and it's sweet tooth which is why we love this dish. It combines both and is so moreish. Sweet and tangy with a hint of spice...
Just as a good curry should be. Normally I'd use cream but as I didn't have any I tried it with yoghurt and it worked really well.. Its speedy and versatile too as you can easily make it veggie by using Sweet Potato or Cauliflower or swap the chicken for fish or beef. The step by step picture guide let's you follow the recipe easily and allows you to tailor it suit you and your families tastes. You can layer the flavours by adding more spice or more sweetness depending on what you prefer. The choice is yours. Why not give this a try and let us know how you got on in the comments below.

Superb – forgot to add yoghurt, but didnt effect how good it was & even teenage son loved it, will definitely do again
Add peppers & peas (as can’t eat spinach)
Thank you for the recipe x
Could this be done in the slow cooker? Just adding the spinach near the end then the yoghurt just before serving? Thanks
Yes.E x
This was so beautiful. New favourite in our house. I halved the chicken and added red peppers.
Will it affect the flavour if you don’t add chilli? My tribe don’t cope very well with heat! And is that fresh or dried mint?
No, it will be fine. Either is ok. Eve x
