Method
step 1
Whizz the garlic, ginger, 75g of the almonds and 6 tbsp of water in a blender to a paste. Put the oil in a wide pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the bay leaf, cardamom, cloves and cinnamon, and stir for 10 seconds. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until browned.
step 2
Reduce the heat to medium and add the paste from the blender, along with the cumin, ground coriander and cayenne. Stir for 3-4 minutes, then add the tomato purée and stir for a minute longer.
step 3
Add the rabbit pieces, salt, coconut milk, garam masala and 150ml water. Bring to a simmer, turn the heat to low, cover and simmer gently for 1 hour or until the rabbit is falling from the bone. Remove the meat onto a plate and simmer the sauce until it thickens.
step 4
Give the rice a good wash under cold, running water. Put into a large pan of salted boiling water and cook for 20 minutes or until tender. Drain really well.
step 5
For the golden raisins, boil a kettle, put the tea bag and the raisins in a heatproof jug or bowl, pour 300ml of hot water over the raisins and cover, allowing to cool completely with the tea bag, then drain to serve.
step 6
Create a bed of rice, top with rabbit pieces and sauce, then scatter with raisins, the rest of the toasted flaked almonds, chopped coriander and sliced chilli.
