4. Cook the chicken in a hot pan until cooked through and lightly charred. Remove and set aside.
5. In the same pan, soften the onion for a few minutes, then add garlic, ginger and tomato purée. Cook for a minute before stirring in the chopped tomatoes, tandoori seasoning and stock.
6. Simmer for 8-10 minutes until slightly thickened, then blend smooth and return to the pan.
7. Stir in the cream and garam masala, add the chicken back in and simmer gently until rich.
8. Cook the naan in a dry pan for 1–1½ minutes per side until puffed and lightly charred.
