Ingredients

  • 1 cup (200 g) veggie ‘meat’ (like Quorn, Linda McCartney etc. Crumbled tofu would also work, 1 cup = 200g)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp curry paste (korma for low spice, tikka for mid, tandoori/madras for hot)
  • 3 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 3 tbsp mango chutney
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 tbsp tomato puree
  • 1 tsp thyme, dried (or 1 tbsp fresh, chopped)
  • 1 tsp parsley, dried (or 1 tbsp fresh, chopped)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 tbsp water
  • 1 (300 g) baguette (around 300g)
  • 4 leaves lettuce
  • 4 tbsp cheddar cheese, grated

Optional:

  • 1 handful (1 handful) raisins (or dried apricots if you like it sweet)
  • 1-2 tsp dijon mustard (for an extra kick - Dave’s fave)

Instructions

  • Heat up the oil in a pan and fry the veggie bites until lightly browned and crispy - around five minutes. When done, remove from heat and let cool.

  • Mix together the curry paste, mayonnaise, mango chutney, lemon juice, tomato puree, thyme, parsley, salt, pepper and mustard and raisins/apricots (if using).
  • Give it all a good stir. If the sauce seems very thick, add a couple of tbsp water. Stir again.

  • More serving ideas: If you’re looking to cut down on bread then a baked potato is excellent with coronation (not) chicken instead! It’s as versatile as the queen ;)
