For the pickle, put the rice vinegar, sugar and 50ml of water into a pan and heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Put the remaining ingredients into a bowl and pour over the hot liquid. Cool, then chill for an hour.

Cook the chicken kievs following pack instructions.
step 3
Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil in a pan and add the onion, carrot and a pinch of salt. Cook for 10 minutes until the onion is soft. Add the ginger and garlic, and cook for a few minutes before tipping in the flour and curry powder. Cook for another 2 minutes, while stirring. Gradually add the vegetable stock while stirring until you have a smooth sauce. Simmer for 15 minutes until thickened, then add the soy and honey, and use a hand blender to whizz until smooth.
