Method

  1. 1

    Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a wok or large pan and stir-fry the chicken for 4–5 minutes until browned and cooked through; remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    Add the remaining oil, then the onion, pepper, carrot, garlic, ginger and chilli, and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until softened.

  3. 3

    Push the vegetables aside, crack in the egg and scramble briefly.

  4. 4

    Add the roti strips, curry powder, soy sauce and the cooked chicken to the pan, and toss everything together vigorously for 2–3 minutes until well combined and hot through.

  5. 5

    Season to taste, then serve hot, with extra chilli or a wedge of lime if you like.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 170 g chicken breast and ½ red pepper. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
