Tip
The sauce can be prepared while your chicken is marinating and then it can all be put together 20 minutes before serving. Serve topped with lots of fresh chopped coriander, basmati rice, popadoms and naan bread. I also like serving some steamed (varoma) seasonal vegetables as a side, green beans and brocolli are a favorite in out house.

1. Wash 500g Basmati Rice in simmering basket, until the water runs clear.
2. Add 1200g water and 2 tsp salt to thermomix.
3. Put simmering basket of rice into thermomix and give it a quick stir to loosen.
4. Cook 20 minutes, 100 degrees, speed 4.
5. During the cooking time give the rice a stir through the lid a few times.
