Recipe tips
  • You could add extra garlic to the onions for more flavour. Thinly slice 2-3 cloves and cook for a few minutes with the onions.
  • Freezing instructions: Defrost in a microwave then cook over a very low heat until piping hot.
  • If you don’t have garlic or chillies to hand, you could use chilli powder and garlic granules, just check the label to make sure there's no added salt.
