5. Add the curry powder and cook, stirring for another 2 minutes.
6. Open the soup and pour it in (if using normal soup, you may just quarter fill the can with water, swill it around to get all the soup from around the sides and pour that in, but if it's concentrated soup, use a can and a half of water)

8. Heat the teaspoon of oil in a large pan (use the same one you used for the sauce, washed and dried, if you used a liquizer to blend your sauce)
9. On a medium high heat, fry the marinated chicken, stirring to prevent sticking, for 3 minutes.
