Prep: 5 mins | Cook: 30 mins | Total: 30 mins
Serves 4 - 6
2-3 pouches Holy Cow! curry sauces (mix and match - Tikka + Goan + Rogan Josh works brilliantly),
1 pouch Holy Cow! Super Bean Daal (Tarka Dal or Punjabi Rajma),
Your choice of chicken, paneer, prawns, chickpeas or lamb - one per sauce,
320g basmati rice (dry weight),
4-6 naans, warmed,
200ml natural yoghurt (for raita),
1/2 cucumber, finely diced,
Mango chutney to serve,
Pickled onions to serve,
Fresh coriander and lime to garnish
1. Cook the rice: Rinse and cook the basmati rice. Keep warm.
2. Make the raita: Combine the yoghurt with the diced cucumber. Season and set aside.
3. Cook each curry: Cook each protein or vegetable separately, then add the relevant Holy Cow! sauce. Keep each curry warm in its pan.
4. Heat the daal: Warm the Holy Cow! Super Bean Daal in a small pan for 3-4 minutes.
5. Warm the naans: Wrap naans in foil and warm in the oven at 180°C for 5 minutes, or heat in a dry pan.
6. Build the thali: Serve everything together family-style - curries, daal, rice, naans, raita, chutney and pickled onions all on the table at once.
Tip: The beauty of a thali is that everything can be prepped in advance and just reheated. The dinner party dish that requires almost no last-minute stress.
