Instructions

  1. Rub 150 g of skinless bone-in chicken thigh with a good pinch of salt, 5 g of grated ginger and 1 clove grated garlic clove. Leave to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes while you prepare the base.
  2. Blend 50 g of roughly chopped onion, 100 g of quartered tomato and 0.5 scotch bonnet with a splash of water to a smooth purée. Set aside.
  3. Put 45 g of smooth peanut butter in a bowl and whisk in about 100 ml of the stock, a little at a time, until you have a lump-free, pourable cream. This stops the peanut butter seizing in the pot.
