2. Prepare Your Chicken
   Dice your chicken into bite-sized pieces and set aside with your vegetables.
3. Sauté Your Vegetables

4. Add Your Chicken
   Add your chicken to the pan and stir until thoroughly mixed with your vegetables.
5. Add the Flavor Mix
   Add your korma spice mix, ground almonds, thyme, and cold water to the pan, stirring rapidly. This will create a delicious liquor.
6. Simmer and Enjoy
   Add your coconut milk to the pan, bring to a boil, then turn down the heat and gently simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
7. The Finishing Touches
   Garnish with a teaspoon of honey, herbs, and sweetcorn. You can also season with salt and pepper to taste. If the sauce feels too heavy, try adding a squeeze of lemon juice to lighten it up.
