1 x 1·1kg pack chicken legs and drumsticks
1tbsp tomato purée
2tbsp Indian curry paste
1 garlic clove, crushed
100ml (3½fl oz) plain yogurt
2·5cm (1in) piece root ginger, grated
1tbsp white wine vinegar
coriander, to serve
lemon wedges, to serve
For the rice and salad
400g (13oz) basmati rice
1 cucumber, halved, deseeded and sliced
1⁄4 red onion, finely sliced
2tbsp plain yogurt
2tbsp olive oil
2tsp mint sauce
2tsp white wine vinegar
Score the chicken with a knife several times on each side, right to the bone. Mix the purée, curry paste, garlic, yogurt, ginger and vinegar in a large bowl. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Chill for 15 minutes, or up to 24 hours. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Arrange the chicken in a large, ovenproof roasting tin and spoon over the marinade. Cook for 35-40 minutes, until cooked through and the juices run clear. Meanwhile, cook the rice following the packet instructions and prepare the salad. Combine the cucumber and onion in a bowl and set aside. In another bowl, mix the yogurt, olive oil, mint sauce and white wine vinegar to make a runny dressing.
Serve the chicken with the rice and salad, with the dressing on the side to drizzle over. Garnish with the coriander and lemon wedges to squeeze over, if you like.
