Method

Mix all the sauce ingredients and cook in a pan over slow heat for ten minutes.
Spread over the chicken.
Stick under a grill until slightly charred on top – be careful, you don’t want to burn the sauce.
Serve stuffed into pita bread with a green salad. Back home my mum rolled the red chicken in rotli with sliced red onions.
