Method
-
step 1
To make the curry leaf mayo, heat the oil in a small pan over a medium-high heat. Once shimmering, carefully add the curry leaves and mustard seeds. Remove from the heat, then whisk into the mayo along with the lemon juice and a little seasoning.
-
step 2
Tip the chicken breast pieces into a bowl along with the mayo, spices and plenty of seasoning, and mix well. Tip the breadcrumbs into a shallow bowl. Remove the chicken pieces from the mayo, shaking off any excess, and dredge in the breadcrumbs to coat.
-
step 3
Fill a pan no more than a third full with oil and heat to 170C or until a cube of bread browns in 40 seconds. Cook the nuggets, in batches, for 3-4 mins or until deeply golden and cooked through. Drain onto kitchen paper and season with sea salt flakes.
-
step 4
Serve with the curry leaf mayo for dipping, and chips, if you like.
