    Method

    1 Heat the oil in a medium saucepan, add the cardamom and cinnamon and cook for 30 seconds, then add the curry paste and cook for a minute. The mixture will spit so cover the pan.

    2 Add the chicken and stir to coat in the paste and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the chickpeas with 100ml cold water and cook gently together for a further 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    3 While the chicken is cooking whizz the spinach, coriander and ginger together with the coconut milk in a food processor or blender to create a smooth, thick sauce. Add to the pan and simmer for 5-10 minutes until the chicken is completely cooked through and there is no pink meat. Check the seasoning and stir in the lemon juice.

    4 Serve with the yogurt and scatter with extra chopped coriander. Serve with warm naan bread and/or brown basmati rice.
