Ingredients:
- 2 x tblspn olive oil
- 2 x large white skinned onions

Start by peeling onions and finely chopping,
In large pan or wok, gently fry in the olive oil and slowly cook them down until they are soft and golden, don't rush this as you don't want them to burn.
Then add the minced garlic, minced ginger and the spices.
Cook out gently for around five minutes, stirring all the time to prevent sticking and burning.
Now add the can of tomatoes and let it simmer until it turns dark and thickens slightly.
Time to add your lentils and chicken stock and sweetcorn.
On a quick grill or in a frying pan, brown your chicken fillets to give them some colour.
Then add to sauce, chopping up any large pieces into bite size.
Simmer for about 20 minutes until lentils are fully cooked through, adding some more stock if necessary.
Just before serving add the mango chutney and stir through, sprinkle with freshly chopped coriander.
Serve in bowls with nan breads..... and maybe a glass of lager too!
You wont be disappointed!
