3 cloves garlic
3 cm piece of ginger
1 tbsp curry powder (store-bought Madras or Sri Lankan-style)
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp chilli powder (optional)
1 tsp garam masala
2 tbsp water (to help blend)
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp mustard seeds
6-8 curry leaves (optional but highly recommended)

Mix chicken together with turmeric, salt, garam masala, and yoghurt in a large bowl. Set aside for at least 15 minutes.
In a blender or food processor, blitz onion, garlic, ginger, curry powder, cumin, coriander, chilli powder, garam masala, and water into a smooth paste.
Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat, add mustard seeds and let them pop, next add in curry leaves and fry for 30 seconds. Stir in the curry paste and fry for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until it darkens slightly and oil begins to separate. Add the marinated chicken and fry for 5 minutes until slightly browned. Pour in the can of tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens. Add coconut milk and fresh cream, stir well, and let simmer for 10-15 minutes. Stir in frozen mixed vegetables and cook for another 5 minutes. Taste and adjust salt if needed.
To make the Raita mix together the yoghurt, grated cucumber, cumin powder, and salt.
Serve the curry with rice and a large dollop of raita.
