• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • In a large bowl, combine half the Mumbai spice blend, a dollop of Greek-style yoghurt, a drizzle of olive oil and a generous pinch of salt. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook half chicken, skin-side down first, until browned, 4-5 minutes each side. Transfer to a lined oven tray. • Spread spiced yoghurt over the chicken with a spoon. Roast until cooked through, 25-30 minutes. • Set aside to rest for 5-10 minutes.
• While chicken is roasting, cut zucchini into rounds. • Slice brown onion into wedges. • Place zucchini, onion and snacking tomatoes on a second lined oven tray. • Sprinkle with remaining Mumbai spice blend, drizzle with olive oil (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people) and season with a generous pinch of salt. • Roast until tender, 15-18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber into half-moons. • Pick curry leaves. • Roughly chop mint. Finely chop garlic. • In a medium bowl, combine the white wine vinegar and a good pinch of salt and sugar. Add cucumber and enough water to just cover the cucumber, then set aside. • In a small bowl, combine mint, remaining yoghurt and a pinch of salt. TIP: Slicing the cucumber very thinly helps it pickle faster!
• In a second small heatproof bowl, melt the butter and half the garlic in the microwave, in 10 second bursts, until fragrant. Season with salt. • Brush one side of naan bread with the garlic butter. • Place garlic naan directly on a wire rack in the oven. Bake until golden, 2-4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Add curry leaves, mild curry paste, tomato paste and remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add coconut milk, the brown sugar, any chicken resting juices and a splash of water and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Transfer roasted veggies to the pan, stirring to combine. Season to taste.
• Drain pickled cucumber. Slice Mumbai yoghurt roast chicken in half. • Bring chicken, zucchini curry, garlic naan and pickled cucumber to the table. • Sprinkle slivered almonds over the curry. • Serve with mint yoghurt. Enjoy!
