Perfect protein-filled training dish
This is proper hearty training food. This week I am doing my take on a classic Indian side dish of Sag Aloo. Cheap and easy to find, the potato, cauliflower and spinach form the base of this tasty dish. It is packed full of vitamins and nutrients and makes the most of easily found vegetables. I have used my favourite form of protein in chicken, although this dish works brilliantly if you use sea bream as well.
Ingredients
Serves 2
2 medium chicken breasts
Marinade, 1 tsp curry powder & one dash of oil
1 large onion, finely diced
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp curry powder
1 tsp turmeric
250g diced raw potatoes
150g chopped raw cauliflower
Large handful of fresh raw spinach
Fresh coriander to finish
Method
Mix together the curry powder and olive oil to form a paste, rub over the chicken breasts and allow to marinade at room temperature for 15 minutes. To cook the chicken breasts, colour in a medium sauté pan and then bake in the oven at 190c for 15-20 minutes.
To make the Sag Aloo, gently cook the onion in the olive oil for 3/4 minutes until soft, add the curry powder & turmeric and cook over a low heat for 5 minutes, ensuring it doesn't catch. Add the potato and cauliflower and cook for 15 minutes until both the potato and cauliflower are soft. Before serving add the spinach and cook for a further 2 minutes. Correct the seasoning and add the fresh coriander at the last minute.
