Cooking Instructions:
  • Before cooking:

    PREHEAT OVEN TO 210℃ (FAN BAKE).

  • 1. TO COOK THE TANDOORI CHICKEN AND PUMPKIN:

    Line an oven tray with baking paper. Remove the free-range chicken breasts from their packaging and pat dry with a paper towel. Slice each chicken breast in to 3 even pieces and place on the oven tray with the steamed pumpkin. Coat the chicken pieces well with the tandoori paste. Season the chicken and pumpkin with salt and bake in the oven for 15-18 mins or until cooked through.

  • 2. TO COOK THE POPPADOM:

    Microwave option: Place the poppadom in microwave one at a time and cook on high for 30-40 secs turning over halfway through the cooking time. Stove top option: Spray a non-stick frying pan with oil and place over a high heat. Once the pan is hot cook poppadum one at a time for about 10-15 seconds on each side. They will harden up as they cool.

  • 3. TO COOK THE BIRIYANI CAULIFLOWER RICE:

    Slice the silverbeet into ½ cm strips discarding any stalk. Spray a non-stick frying pan with oil and place over a medium-high heat. Once hot add the silverbeet and cook for 1-2 mins. Add the cauliflower rice and cook for 1-2 mins. Add the biriyani spice mix with 4 tbsps of water and cook for 1-2 mins.

  • TO SERVE:

    Spoon biriyani cauliflower rice into bowls. Top with oven roasted tandoori chicken and pumpkin. Dollop with yoghurt and serve with poppadum on the side.
