Step 2
To make the curry sauce cook the onion, garlic and ginger (and chilli flakes if using) in a little splash of oil until softened. Add the flour and curry powder mix, and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring to stop it catching. Slowly add the chicken stock then stir in the sugar and simmer for 15 minutes. Blend the sauce to smooth using a stick blender or food processor.
