Butter chicken roast with biryani rice - Split chicken roasted with a yoghurt Indian marinade, served with turmeric rice and tomato raita.
1 Set oven to 250°C. Use a sharp knife to make incisions along each side of the chicken.

2. Combine 1/4 cup yoghurt and butter chicken paste, rub all over chicken on a lined baking tray (see notes). Roast for 35 minutes, or until cooked through.

3. Heat a saucepan with 1 tbsp oil over medium heat. Peel and grate ginger, slice spring onions and dice carrot. Add to pan as you go. Stir in 1 tsp ground turmeric and 2 tsp ground coriander. Cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant.

4. Add rice, sultanas, 3 cups of water and 1/2 tsp salt to saucepan. Cover with lid, cook on low heat for 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat, stand for 5 minutes.

5. Dice tomatoes, slice snow peas and chop coriander. Combine with remaining yoghurt.

6. Serve chicken with rice and side of raita.

Tip! Cooking time may vary with the size of the chicken.
If you have excess marinade use it to baste chicken halfway through cooking time.
