Steps:

• To make this chicken curry, heat a large frying pan, add the oil and fry the pieces of chicken for 5 mins, until they brown on the underside. Turn them over and cook them for another few minutes. Remove from pan, leaving pan juices, and set aside.
• Add the onion, bay leaves, cinnamon sticks and crushed cardamom to the pan and cook until the onion is softened - for about 5 mins.
• Put the chicken back in to pan. Add the curry paste, yogurt, 150ml (¼ pint) warm water, coriander and sultanas. Stir well, cover with a lid and cook for 20-25 mins over a very low heat. Add more water if the curry doesn't have enough sauce for you.
• Cook the rice, along with the spices, if liked, following the pack instructions, adding the green beans halfway through cooking. Drain off any water. Serve rice with the curry, garnished with coriander, and mango chutney and flavoured yogurt, if you like. (Not suitable for freezing).
