Step 2
Start the rice cooker (3 scoops of rice)
Step 3
Heat the ghee (butter or oil) over high heat in a large fry pan. Take the chicken out of the Marinade but do not wipe or shake off the marinade from the chicken (but don’t pour the Marinade left in the bowl into the fry pan).

Step 4
Place chicken in the fry pan and cook until the chicken is white all over (it doesn’t really brown because of the Marinade).

Sauce

Step 5
Sauce: Add the tomato passata, cream, sugar and salt. Also add any remaining marinade left in the bowl. Turn down to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Do a taste test to see if it needs more salt.
