Method

  • Heat your oil in a large Sauté pan or shallow casserole.

  • Add the spices and tomato purée and sugar and cook out, stirring to prevent the spices catching.
  • Next, fry half of the tomatoes in the spice paste, don’t panic about it being too dry, the tomatoes release a lot of juice while cooking.
  • Now, shake up your coconut milk in the tin and add to the pan, stir and simmer on a medium heat, once the sauce starts to come together and is thickening slightly add the remaining tomatoes.
  • Simmer for 15 minutes.
