Instructions
  1. Heat the oil in a large, deep frying pan and add the cinnamon, fennel and cumin. Cook over a medium heat for 1-2 minutes. Add the ginger, three-quarters of the chili peppers, the green pepper, carrots and celery. Stir well, then cover and cook gently over a low heat for 5 minutes or until the vegetables begin to soften.
  2. Push the vegetables to the side of the pan, then add the chicken and increase the heat slightly. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 minutes until the chicken begins to brown. Pour in the stock, add the apricots and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer gently for 10-15 minutes until the chicken and vegetables are cooked.
  3. Stir in the yogourt, bananas and lychees and heat through gently without boiling. Scatter the toasted flaked almonds and remaining chili pepper over the top just before serving.
