Description
Slow-cooked the way it is done in the villages of South India, this curry is deeply spiced and built on patience rather than shortcuts. Tender free-range chicken simmers with tomato, onion, garlic and ginger, while curry leaf, cumin, ground coriander, turmeric and cloves layer in the aromatics that give the sauce its dark, savoury depth.
Yoghurt smooths the finish and chilli keeps a steady medium heat — warming rather than fierce, so it suits a mixed table. The recipe is gluten free, and because the yoghurt is dairy, it does contain milk. Everything is cooked, chilled and frozen for you, so dinner is a matter of reheating, not simmering.
The long, slow build is the whole point of this dish, and it is already done for you. Pair it with garlic & coriander naan for mopping duties and you have a proper South Indian spread on the table. There is more to explore in the wider curry range if this becomes a weekly habit.

The saltiness of the squeaky haloumi cuts through the fresh, vibrant zucchini with incredible balance, while that dollop of sour cream and fresh dill adds a cool, luxurious finish.

Honestly this was way nicer than takeaway. The chicken was very tender and the sauce so delicious. I served it with rice, pappadums and some side dishes which we really loved. I will definitely buy again!
- KSKatina S.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoReviewingRoasted Pumpkin, Spinach and Ricotta LasagneTasty and not heavy for pasta
This is my favourite dish with Providoor. It’s very tasty with a good combination of ingredients. It’s nice and light and not heavy or oily like lasagna tends to be. Generous servings and I actually got 4 serves out of it.
I took one star off for incorrect instructions. Firstly the box it comes in does not even state what temperature the oven should be on. Secondly, the instructions say best cooked defrosted. I missed this the first time I cooked it and cooked straight from frozen and it was delicious. The second time I followed the instructions and it was rather soggy. My brother is a chef and he said it’s best to cook from frozen as pasta tends to go soggy and be over-soft once thawed and the sauce will be watery. I found this out first hand. I also don’t like that these meals are to be cooked in plastic containers.

Lots of veggies and delicious sauce. If I was making myself would include more chicken. Shared between 2 I found myself a little hungry after.
