Protection

work at

Wigram

alleviates

Heathcote

flooding risk

THE RISK of properties

in Heathcote flooding has

decreased due to work

undertaken in Wigram.

The city council has

undertaken flood protection

work to increase the capacity of

the Wigram East storage basin,

which sits in the Canterbury

Agricultural Park.

Land drainage manager

Keith Davison said the work

means there will be less risk

of properties along the upper

reaches of the Heathcote

flooding.

“We have lowered a large area

of the park for flood storage and

created four hectares of wetland.

“In a one-in-100-year storm

event the basin can now store

around 590 million litres

of water – the equivalent of

more than 236 Olympic-sized

swimming pools,” Mr Davison

said.

The city council fast-tracked

the $7.25 million project to

extend the Wigram East storage

basin to provide critical flood

mitigation, and scheduled it

at the same time as work on

neighbouring Ngā Puna Wai

Sports Hub.

from the editor’s desk

WE REVEAL some interesting data about

the bane of service station lives – petrol

drive-offs (see page 3).

I’ve seen one or two over the years.

A key indicator that something is about

to happen is the thief leaves the car idling while he or see is filling

up. Usually, it’s a passenger filling up, for a quick getaway.

And almost always the forecourt is busy so staff in the shop are

either distracted or have multiple things going on.

But now a relatively new development in the drive-off story.

Thieves are stealing number plates, and attaching them to their

cars to make it even harder to be caught.

The Hornby Community Patrol has a solution – security

screws to thwart the thieves.

Stolen plates used in petrol thefts

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding

THIEVES ARE fitting their cars

with stolen number plates to

steal petrol.

But police don’t appear to be

following up on the issue.

THe Hornby Community

Patrol receives weekly statistics

which shows on average about

five to 10 number plates are

stolen across the city each week.

“I noticed like last week there

were nine sets of number plates

stolen … I feel nobody talks

about it,” patrol chairman Ken

Chamberlain said.

It is believed number plates

are stolen to disguise vehicles

when crimes are committed –

mainly for petrol drive-offs and

burglaries.

Superintendent Lane Todd

said number plates are routinely

stolen for petrol drive-offs.

Drive-off incidents escalate

when fuel prices rise.

He said police take reports but

it does have to prioritise with

more serious offending.

“If there is a vehicle identified

and has stolen registration

plates there are limited inquiries

we can do unless we see good

footage of the offending person

on the forecourt,” he said.

Fuel stations say police leave

“a lot to be desired” when it

comes to following up on

CHANGE: The Hornby Community Patrol is planning a

fundraiser so that vehicles visiting BP 2go Halswell can be

fitted with anti-theft number plate screws.

petrol drive-offs.

BP 2go Halswell site manager

Josh Nelson said it hasn’t been

happy with the police response

for a long time.

He said each incident

of stolen fuel is reported

to police, a letter is sent to

the owner of the plate and

the footage is downloaded

and saved.

Mr Nelson said the company

has an agreement

with the New Zealand

Transport Agency which

will provide registration details

and the address of the plate’s

owner.

“Our hope is if we keep reporting

them, they (police) realise it is a

problem. When they have the

resources they will throw more at

it,” Mr Nelson said.

It has had 20

incidents of stolen fuel

in the past two months

– four of the recorded

incidents involved false

number plates.

It is why the Hornby

Community Patrol

runs fundraisers at

BP 2go Halswell which

involves refitting number plates

with “anti-theft” screws.

Rob Jack, who owns four

Mike Mora

Mobil stations across the city,

including Mobil Creyke Rd in

Ilam said: “If we leave it in the

hands of the police, not much

gets done.”

He said he is not encouraged

to call police every time fuel is

stolen because it doesn’t often

get results, which is why the

company follows up itself.

“THat involves me going to

houses, knocking on doors,

letters, all that kind of stuff

which can be a little sketchy at

times but it is the only way it can

be done,” he said.

Mobil Creyke Rd has had

about 10 petrol drive-offs since

the beginning of the year.

In May, Halswell-Hornby-

Riccarton Community Board

chairman Mike Mora had

his number plate stolen in

broad daylight while he was

at a meeting at the Te Hāpua:

Halswell Centre.

Mr Mora reported the incident

to police but has not heard back.

“It is not the end of the world,

it is just frustrating. People need

to be aware that they need to be

very protective of their vehicle

number plates,” he said.

Clock tower repairs set to start

• By Matt Slaughter

THE SCARBOROUGH and

New Brighton clock tower repairs

will begin this month after a long

delay.

Contractors Cook Brothers

Construction Canterbury have

been awarded the tender for

fixing the towers. This should be

done by the start of next year.

The repairs were

supposed to start in

September last year,

but were delayed

after detailed investigation

revealed

more damage and

Andrew

Rutledge

overdue maintenance-related

issues

than expected.

The Scarborough clock tower

dates back to the 1930s.

It is expected the restoration

work will take about six months.

Said city council head of

parks Andrew Rutledge: “Cook

Brothers have a great track record

of heritage repairs and we’re

confident they will do a fantastic

job in returning these clock

towers to their former glory.’’

The clock towers have been

fenced off since early last year

while extensive structural

investigations have been done

to determine the extent of the

repairs required.

That investigative work showed

the earthquakes and years of

exposure to the harsh seaside

environment have left them in a

poor condition.

“Both clock towers suffered

structural damage in the

earthquakes and have historical

damage that needs repairing.

The investigative work we did

revealed there was chlorides in

the concrete which has caused

the underlying reinforcing

steel to corrode in places,’’ Mr

Rutledge said.

“There is also evidence in both

towers of poor quality concrete

cover to the steel – for example,

at the very top of the Scarborough

clock tower you can see

where some of the reinforcing

has been exposed.’’

Mr Rutledge said of the two

clock towers, New Brighton

needed the most repairs. It has

two internal floors that need

replacing because they have significant

cracks in them.

The clock faces on both towers

also need to work carried out on

them.

“The clock faces and

mechanisms from both

clock towers have already

been removed so they can be

restored. Because of the heritage

significance of the clocks, we

want to retain as much of the

original material as possible.’’

Community awards for volunteers

• By Jess Gibson

GOOD SAMARITANS have

been acknowledged for their

services.

Nominees were selected

by Volunteering Canterbury

to receive the outstanding

voluntary contribution to the

community award, presented by

Port Hills MP Ruth Dyson at the

civic offices on June 17.

Twelve groups and 28

individual awards were

presented in front of about 200

people who gathered to support

the nominees.

Alan Christie, City to

Sumner Community Patrol

Sumner resident Alan

Christie, 74, does not believe

that retirement means sitting at

home.

Instead, he puts his free time

to good use by helping out at

the City to Sumner Community

Patrol.

For the past 15 years, Mr

Christie has been involved

with patrol which covers the

area from Linwood through to

Diamond Harbour, building

relationships with groups in the

wider community and making

exceptional contributions

‘behind the scenes.’

Mr Christie is a committee

member and heads out on patrol

every two weeks to help clean

up the streets and report graffiti

to the city council. He will also

help out emergency services if

they need help with accidents or

monitoring areas for crime.

For the last four years, he has

helped to train police college

applicants before they head off

to study for 16 weeks in Porirua,

Wellington.

“Quite a few police applicants

join us to learn a bit more about

what goes on,” he said.

Mr Christie is no stranger to

helping others.

Before joining the patrol,

Mr Christie was involved with

the STOP trust, which helps

males who have been sexually

abused.

He was a member for seven

years, five of which he served as

chairman.

Looking on, Mr Christie plans

to keep helping out at the patrol

until he knows its “time to go.”

COASTGUARD: Jamie Breeze is the volunteer

crew manager and a duty officer for Coastguard

Canterbury and spends up to 40 hours a month

helping people on the water.

“I plan to stay on as long as I’ve

got my wits about me,” he said.

essential emergency service.

This was made possible

after he completed 49 theory

and practical courses, four

assessments and significant

training.

“A lot of it was to do with

search and rescue, which is

quite specific to how

Coastguard operates,” Mr

Breeze said.

Mr Breeze works full-time

as a digital marketing expert

for a website design agency but

heads out to sea when he gets the

call.

His time volunteering can be

up to 40 hours a month – this

includes teaching, training,

administrative work as well as

callouts.

“Normally it’s quite a bit

busier in the Summer,” he said.

Mr Breeze said he is now at the

stage where he is giving back to

the younger generation of crew

members.

Thank you for

Fall Zones

community

To all of you who have had your

trees trimmed before they became

a problem, thank you for keeping all

the families in your community warm,

happy, healthy and connected.

You can be proud of the fact that you have allowed your

neighbours to stay warm, cook dinner and even charge

their mobile phones. You may not have realised that what

you’ve done has had much impact, but from all of us here

at Orion, we just want to say thank you.

Notice and Growth limit zones

A

Power line voltage A. Growth limit zone B. Notice zone

66,000 volts 4.0m 5.0m

33,000 volts 2.5m 3.5m

11,000 volts 1.6m 2.6m

400/230 volts 0.5m 1.5m

We’re not exaggerating.

On our network, 10-20% of all unplanned power outages are

caused by trees — including vegetation — coming into contact

with power lines. Other than this, fire damage to property from

branches sparking in dry conditions and serious injury from

electrocution from contact with trees touching power lines are

also possible consequences of not maintaining your trees.

How close is too close?

While most damage is caused by trees falling on power lines,

significant risk exists from trees merely touching them. This risk

increases the higher the voltage of the power line.

The minimum distances that must be maintained between trees

and power lines, as defined in the Electricity (Hazards from

Trees) Regulations 2003, are outlined in the diagrams above.

All vegetation should be kept out of the growth limit zone and

preferably the notice zone.

Sometimes it may not be practical to have a tree trimmed at the

rate at which it grows and unfortunately, this means it may need

to be removed. Other situations may require trees to be removed,

most commonly when they are at a high risk of falling due to

disease or adverse weather events.

Where do I start?

Before you begin, remember to keep yourself, and those around

you, safe. We recognise that not everyone is experienced in tree

trimming and are happy to advise you on what to do. We can arrange

for trees near power lines to be trimmed at your expense, however

we recommend you hire professionals to safely carry out the work.

If you or someone working for you intends to work within four

metres of power lines, a close approach consent is required from

Orion before you start. As a tree owner, you may be liable for any

damage caused by carrying out trimming or felling of trees.

Will I be fined if I don’t comply?

If a cut or trim notice is given to you and you fail to have the tree

trimmed and/or advise us of the time and location of the trim

without a reasonable excuse, this is an offence. This will make you

liable for a fine not exceeding $10,000. If the offence continues,

you will be liable for a further fine of not more than $500 for every

day or part day during which the offence continues.

More info can be found on our website and if

you have any questions or notice any trees

touching power lines in your area, please call

us on 03 363 9898 or 0800 363 9898.

Bruce King, Little River

Wairewa Community Trust

Quietly working some greenfingered

magic in Little River

is Bruce King, who has over

the years transformed an area

in the Awa-Iti Domain into a

remarkable place.

Mr King’s initiative has not

only created a much-appreciated

spot for the community and

tourists alike, but it has also

garnered interest for the local

Little River School children who

he involves with the annual

spring bulb planting.

Barbara Kay, Lyttelton

Community House Meals

Service

Barbara Kay grew up in

Lyttelton and gives back to her

community where she can.

Since the earthquakes, Miss

Kay has spent over four hours

each week delivering meals for

the Lyttelton Community House

Meals Service.

However, her other work in the

community, goes mostly under

the radar.

If Miss Kay hears of someone

in need, she will help in practical

and useful ways.

House Meals acting

community facilitator Maureen

Dellow-Jackson said Miss Kay

will come in and help when she is

needed “at the drop of a hat.”

“She’s one of those wonderful

people to have in the community.

She’s quiet about what she does

but we are very appreciative,” she

said.

‘I love being able to be myself on air’

•From page 1

Quintin’s dream is to be like

his radio heroes Simon Barnett

and Gary McCormick.

The radio skills he has

learnt have also improved his

academic performance.

“In core subject areas, it kind

of covers social sciences and

English and languages and

the arts for me. And in a way,

doing radio has kind of helped

overcome more of the literacy

areas as well. I used to mumble

quite a lot and I don’t do that

anymore.”

Year 13 student Troy

Richardson said he has learned

a lot being involved with the

station.

“It’s a great hobby to do, I

love being able to be myself on

air

. . . one thing I know I can do is

be myself on radio.”

Year 8 student Rangi

Campbell said his confidence

has been boosted during his

time presenting.

“What I’ve enjoyed about

Dawn FM is being confident

about talking actually, because

at the start of Dawn FM, I

actually didn’t want to talk at

all and, yes, I’ve actually got

really confident at talking and

I’m good at it.”

Luke Bensley, also in year 8,

said music plays an important

role on the station and a wide

range of genres, from electronic

to country, are played.

Xavier Taylor Jarden, who

is in year 12, said as well as

learning how radio is made, he

has made lasting connections

with the students he works

alongside.

“Other than how to actually

change songs and all that, I’ve

basically learnt how to team

Mr Bopp said city council

Mrs Jewell said while she is

about the second option.

“They wouldn’t last as long if

they were outside . . . I am excited

She said the display will give

the hearts longevity for all the

Mrs Jewell said presenting

the crafted hearts with her two

was a “moving experience”.

“To walk into them (the

mosques), to know what

happened there, I actually felt

numb . . . it was something I will

never forget,” she said.

Go-ahead for new playground

• By Kim Thomas

OAKLANDS SCHOOL pupils

are getting a new playground

thanks to years of fundraising

activities such as discos, sausage

sizzles, and gala days.

The school’s board of trustees

outgoing chair Clive Keylard

said the Parent Teacher Association

and the board recently

agreed to pay for a new $180,000

playground for junior pupils.

The board is contributing 60

per cent of the cost from money

saved over eight years in anticipation

of the redevelopment.

The PTA is paying the remainder.

Mr Keylard said the playground

will replace one removed

for a new classroom and an

existing one that is more than

15-years-old.

He said the school was currently

being redeveloped.

The Ministry of Education

paid for buildings, including

construction of three new buildings

and refurbishment of existing

1960s-era classroom blocks,

but not for other facilities such

as playgrounds and landscaping,

he said.

PTA president Michelle Blake

said the group was thrilled to

contribute a large portion of its

savings from fundraising activities

towards the playground.

OUT AND ABOUT: Oaklands School pupils on the existing

playground. From left – Esther Vincent, 7, Greer Western, 7,

Ethan Pietzner, 5, Jessie Braithwaite, 8, and Ollie Braithwaite, 6.

“We have saved all our money

for the last four or five years in

anticipation of the redevelopment

happening.

“We wanted to put our money

towards something significant

that would enhance the school

environment and that students

would enjoy. The playground

definitely fits the bill,” Mrs Blake

said.

Mrs Blake said the group

raised its contribution for

the playground through

annual community gala days,

and regular sausage sizzles,

discos, raffles, and selling used

school uniforms.

Any money raised over the

next few years would fund items

for the redevelopment not paid

for by the ministry, she said.

The redevelopment is expected

to be complete by the end of

2020.

Oaklands School principal

Margaret Trotter said pupils

had a say in the design of the

playground with school council

members voting on the most

important components to be

included.

The playground will be

installed in term 4.

MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD

Thank you to everyone who contributed ideas and feedback as part of our first phase

of consultation as we plan for our new school.

As well as the online survey, feedback was gathered from Post-It Stations at various

school events and from student House Groups and workshops.

A Community Consultation Report is now with the design team to assist in developing

the preliminary concept design for the new school.

The key findings in the report shows our community would like a new school which:

► Reflects Marian’s Roman Catholic Special Character, values, story and history

► Is inclusive and supportive. For example, reflects and celebrates Māori, Asian and

Pasifika cultures

► Fosters Marian’s family environment and supports small class sizes

► Has designated and comfortable spaces to pray, eat, prepare, teach, learn and be

together

► Is eco-friendly and sustainable

► Has full-sized, modern facilities designed to be functional and welcoming

► Has plenty of green, leafy space.

The full report is available on the Marian College website.

SERVICE IN THE COMMUNITY

This term, Marian students have filled paper bags with more than 200

non-perishable food items for Christchurch families in need.

During the July school holidays, Marian students will be working in the

Stanmore Road St Vincent de Paul shop. Please call in with your preloved

gently used clothing and household items and say hi.

Marian College has a long tradition of service. Both students and staff

members are actively involved and contribute positively to the wider

community. All students complete at least six hours of meaningful

service within the school and community, every year.

New research on Gingko

Biloba excites researchers!

For decades scientists believed brain

damage with age, after a stroke or injury

was irreversible and brain neurons could

not be repaired. In more recent times,

new research has shown that neurons

can grow back with the right conditions

and that a special extract of Gingko

Biloba (EGb-761 or TEBONIN) has

been clinically found to assist in this.

The implications for stroke recovery are

obvious, but researchers also know many

of us suffer from undetected “microstrokes”

that over a period of time slowly

reduce our cognitive function. TEBONIN

is prescribed worldwide as a natural

supportive agent for a healthy brain and

cognitive function. It supports healthy

mental performance, concentration, focus,

alertness, motor function and to help

with many conditions including tinnitus

(ringing and noise in the ears), vertigo

and normal balance. TEBONIN improves

micro-circulation and helps the blood

flow reach those critical places it needs to

get. It is a potent anti-oxidant and makes

the red blood cells more pliable and

capillary walls more flexible.

TEBONIN is one of the most widely

studied and researched herbal products in

the world and is the only Ginkgo biloba

extract manufactured via a patented

multi-step extraction process. Each small

tablet contains a highly concentrated

50:1 extract to give you a therapeutic

clinical dose without having to take a large

amount of the herb. Of 25 Gingko biloba

products on the market, and tested by a

major medical journal, only TEBONIN

passed all five of the test requirements.

Ten brands didn’t meet any requirements

and the rest didn’t pass more than three

out of five requirements. TEBONIN is

the only Gingko biloba extract shown

to activated all areas of the brain and is

considered the gold standard in Gingko.

TEBONIN has been trusted by millions

of consumers worldwide for over 30

years with more than 8,000,000 tablets

consumed each day.

TEBONIN and further information

is available from the Natural Health

Advisers at Marshall’s Health & Natural

Therapy in New Brighton. PH: 388-5757.

1 in 2 people

deficient in B12

Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults and

as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12.

Scientists at Rush University Medical

Center found those most deficient

in vitamin B12 to have the smallest

brain mass and the lowest scores on

tests measuring short-term memory,

concentration and brain performance.

Another study showed that older people

with higher levels of B12 in their blood

have bigger, healthier brains and score

higher on cognitive tests than those with

lower levels. Yet another recent landmark

study showed that B12 supplementation

slows the accelerated rate of brain

shrinkage and declining cognitive function.

B12 is essential for energy production, cell

health, regulation of mood and sleep cycles,

nerve health and repair, and prevention

of homocysteine a serious cardiovascular

risk factor that is known to cause damage

and plaque in the blood vessels. It can also

increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard

researchers found

a 34% decrease

risk of vision

loss in a study

of participants

aged 40+ who

supplemented with

B12. Another study

linked a higher risk of hearing loss in

subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12.

The reason so many people lack B12

appears to be our body’s ability to absorb

it declining with age as the digestive

system becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux

medication and other drugs further reduce

B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in

the form of Methylcobalamin sublingual

tablets that are dissolved in the mouth and

thru bypassing the digestive tract have

been shown to effectively raise B12 levels in

the body.

SOUTHERN VIEW

A new house is just the beginning....

52 McCormacks Bay Road, Mt Pleasant

Auction: Thursday 18 July 2019 Unless Sold Prior

3 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 1 living room | 2 car-garage | Listing Number: SM0205

Built in 2015, this impressive, architecturally

designed home has been immaculately finished

and created to ensure minimal maintenance

and easy living; allowing you to make the most

of life, creating new adventures and memories!

Solidly constructed by Benchmark Homes

with quality in mind, you will be supremely

cosy here even in the coldest months thanks

to the double glazing, heat-pumps and extra

heavy-duty insulation. Extra large windows

provide dramatic and uninterrupted blue water

views of the McCormacks Bay Estuary and

beyond, allowing an abundance of natural light

and warmth to flood in.

Tastefully decorated throughout, with

superior fixtures and fittings, there are many

extra touches here that make this home so

special and economical to maintain, including

solar water heating and LED lighting. Whether

you are a smaller family, a professional

couple or perhaps looking to downsize from

a larger family home, you will appreciate the

accommodation on offer here. Two double

bedrooms and a full bathroom on the lower

level complement the Master Bedroom with

luxury ensuite and open plan living on the

upper level.

The section is a perfect example of good things

coming in small packages. The 291sqm site is

attractively planted and offers a variety of spots

for you to relax in; enjoy your morning coffee

on the sheltered balcony or take afternoon tea

with your friends and family on the sunny deck

below. Private and fully fenced, this is a very

practical property, with an electric gate opening

to your double internal access garage.

Our vendor has loved their time here, with

so much on offer in the vicinity; the coastal

pathway to Sumner provides easy access to

beaches and the village vibe, the Mt Pleasant

farmers market and community centre is the

place to go for your organic veggies or morning

yoga classes, and the Port Hills and Estuary are

the perfect playground for those who love an

active lifestyle! However our realistic owner is

committed to moving on and has made their

instructions clear - they would love to see this

immaculate home sold on or before auction

day. Don’t risk missing out, come and see for

yourself or call for more details, this may be

more affordable than you might think!

HOME & HEATING

Choosing the

right heat pump

for your home

The facts about

Home Ventilation

Balanced Pressure

vs Positive Pressure

Are you struggling with the heat of

Summer or wanting to get organised for

Winter? With the ever changing weather

patterns, heat pumps have the flexibility

of being able to heat and cool which is an

advantage no other appliance can offer. This

represents great value for your investment

as you can use it all year round. The team

at Enviro Master Ltd can help keep you

cool this Summer either at home or work.

Enviro Master supplies, installs and services

all the leading brands including Panasonic,

Fujitsu, Mitsubishi and Daikin. This means

our team can show you which system and

brand will best suit your needs.

With new regulations coming in for

Landlords to provide heating in rentals,

now is a great time to beat the 1st of

July deadline. Inadequate heating and

ventilation can lead to mould growth and

dampness in your property, leading to

costlier maintenance and an unhealthy

living environment. Providing a fixed

heater with a higher heat output and lower

running costs, like a heat pump, will enable

your tenants to heat the area effectively.

It will also discourage them from using

unflued gas heaters which can make a

house damp and mouldy.

It is important to remember, when

selecting an installer, the manufacturer’s

warranty does not cover the installation

and consumers could be responsible for

any repair or damage caused to the system

due to poor installation. Enviro Master’s

five-star installation guarantee ensures

correct installation, and a demonstration

so customers have an understanding on

how it will best meet their needs.

For a free in home consultation, call

Enviro Master on 366 0525 or visit our

showroom at 41A Shakespeare Rd,

Waltham, Christchurch.

Under the New Zealand Building Code,

all buildings, including residential, need

to be suitably ventilated, either with

opening windows or forced ventilation.

Clause G4.1 states: “The objective of this

provision is to safeguard people from

illness or loss of amenity due to lack of

fresh air.” There are many benefits to forced,

or mechanical, ventilation over opening

windows, including warmth, security,

reduction of outside noises and reduction

of condensation.

Traditional domestic ventilation systems

are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in

from outside via the roof space and force

the stale air out through gaps around

windows and doors. The incoming air

from these systems has to be heated or

cooled to keep the house warm in winter or

cool in summer.

The Smooth-Air HEX390 is a ‘balanced

pressure’ system. It extracts air from the

house and at the same time brings in fresh

air. These two streams of air pass through

a heat exchanger, which warms incoming

air in winter and cools in summer if air

conditioning is being used. This means that

up to 80% of the energy which would be

wasted using a traditional positive pressure

system is recovered, resulting in significant

energy savings and therefore lower heating

or cooling costs.

Until recently, balanced pressure

ventilation systems have been considerably

more expensive than traditional

positive pressure systems. However,

with Smooth-Air’s unique

manufacturing capabilities, a

HEX390 balanced pressure system

can be installed for a similar price as

a traditional positive pressure system.

Slow cooked, healthy butter chicken

Making healthy meals

packed with flavour is

easy in a slow cooker,

says chef and food writer

Ross Dobson

In his latest recipe book, The

Healthy Slow Cooker, Dobson

shows it doesn’t take too much

effort to make food in a slow

cooker that is not only healthy

but can also be gluten-free,

vegan or vegetarian. He uses

inspiration from Asia, India and

the Middle East, with flavours,

ingredients and spices that work

well in a slow cooker.

Light butter chicken

(serves four, gluten-free)

Prep time 20min

Cooking time 4.5 hours

Ingredients

750g chicken thigh fillets

1 brown onion, chopped

3cm piece ginger, chopped

2 cloves garlic, chopped

1 large green chilli, seeded and

chopped

1 Tbsp olive oil

1 Tbsp butter

½ tsp chilli powder

1 Tbsp ground cumin

1 Tbsp ground coriander

1 Tbsp garam masala

1 Tbsp sweet paprika

5 green cardamom pods, lightly

crushed

2 Tbsp tomato paste

(concentrated pure)

2 tsp chicken stock

powder

400g can crushed tomatoes

1 Tbsp cornflour

1 cup (260g) natural yoghurt

To serve

Brown basmati rice

Handful roughly chopped

coriander (cilantro)

Lemon wedges

Directions

Heat your slow cooker to high.

Trim the fat from the chicken

thighs and discard. Cut each

thigh in half, or into thirds

if large, bearing in mind that

they will shrink as they cook.

Refrigerate until needed.

Put the onion, ginger, garlic

and chilli into a food processor

and process until you have a

chunky paste.

Heat the oil in a large frying

pan over medium heat. Add the

paste and cook for 8-10min,

until the liquid from the onion

has evaporated and the paste

looks dry. Stir through the butter

and cook for a minute until the

butter has melted.

Stir in the chilli powder,

cumin, coriander, garam masala,

paprika and cardamom pods.

Add two tablespoons cold water

and stir to incorporate any stuckon

bits.

Stir in the tomato paste and

stock powder, then scrape the

contents of the frying pan into

the bowl of the slow cooker.

Add the crushed tomatoes,

cornflour, yoghurt and chicken.

Give everything a good stir,

nudging the chicken into the

sauce, then cover and cook for

two hours.

Give it a stir, then quickly

cover again to avoid losing too

much heat. Cook for a further

two hours, until the chicken

is very tender and the sauce is

thick. Serve the butter chicken

on brown basmati rice, garnished

with chopped coriander and

lemon wedges on the side.
