Equipment needed: Hob, oven, baking tray(s), large mixing bowl and small mixing bowl.

Method

  1. Mix together two thirds of the natural yoghurt, tandoori spice mix and garlic cloves in a large bowl. Tear each Quorn fillet into 4 rough pieces and add to the marinade. Stir to combine. Leave to marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes.

  2. Preheat your oven to 180°C fan/200°C non fan/gas mark 6.

  3. Make the cucumber raita by combining the rest of the natural yoghurt, mint sauce and cucumber in a small bowl. Refrigerate until required.

  4. Cook the rice according to pack instructions and add the peas and sweetcorn for the last minute.

  5. Meanwhile, spoon the Quorn fillets onto a greased baking tray and cook for 12-14 minutes or until piping hot.

  6. To serve, divide the rice between the plates, top with the tandoori fillets and drizzle with the cucumber raita.

Top Tips:

Try adding diced peppers to the rice to add even more colour.

If no mint sauce available, just use plain yoghurt and cucumber.

Tandoori fillets can also be used as a starter, no need to cook the rice, just serve with the raita as a dipping sauce.
