    I never saw that pic. Where was I? :confused: See...'recovery' to me usually means alcohol has been involved somewhere along the line. :rotfl:

    To quote Mercy......
    The other day (for the first time) I made buttery chicken. Baked mini breast fillets with butter and a veg stock cube sprinkled over - turned a couple o times in cooking. Was ace on a bed of rocket with extra romaine lettuce on the side. And some of the juice drizzled over - made the most of the rocket :)


    Aah, it was probably when you were under the patio that i posted a link to youtube.

    I will go and find it now...

    No, no, its ok alias.. i dont mind.. really :rolleyes:

    Here you are --- is fab, but not very spicy, if you like spice, add more.
    Oh and i only used 100g almond flour for the bhajis

    Its dead in here today, where is everyone:confused:

    Was rummaging through the old thread and came upon this curry recipe

    http://www.videojug.com/film/how-to-make-butter-chicken

    And these bhajis to go with it, not tried yet but will try it on my day off, Wed

    Bee's Onion Bhajis:

    You need:
    200g ground almonds
    4 eggs, separated
    100ml double cream
    3 medium onions, cut in half and very finely sliced
    1sp salt
    2 green chillis finely chopped (seeds removed if you prefer)
    1/2 tsp baking powder
    1 tsp cumin seeds
    1/2 tsp turmeric
    Roast the cumin seeds in a dry, medium hot pan until they start to smell fragrant. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
    Mix together the ground almonds, cumin seeds, turmeric, salt, baking powder and chopped chillis.
    Beat in the egg yolks and cream.
    Whisk the egg whites to soft peaks and fold into the almond mixture.
    Separate the onion slices and gently fold into the almond batter a third at a time until all the onion is incorporated.
    Cover the bottom of a frying pan with groundnut oil to about half a centimetre depth and put over a low to medium heat.
    Using a dessertspoon, fry spoonfuls of batter on both sides until deep brown and crisp.
    Serve hot and sizzling straight from the pan sprinkled with chopped fresh coriander and chopped fresh mint.

    alias - as mazzers said but the pics werent on here as they are pretty much nekkid and also rather intimate at times
    others might say a bit gruesome as a huge wacking scar across the belly isnt that pretty really !!

    i want someone to come and make onion bahjis for me :(

    btw - i have no children or a husband untill at least sunday tea time - go me !!
