    Hey guys!

    I had a bit of a distaster in the kitchen today making a chicken curry.
    I made it last week and it was edible, but not enjoyable really. I thought i'd try again tonight, and used a different recipe, yet it still wasn't very nice! too runny, even half a pot of total 0% natural yoghurt didn't sort it out.

    Does anyone have some top tips for a lovely thick curry??
    or know of some low(ish) syn ready made curry sauces/packet jobs?

    it's the only thing i'm missing really, even microwaved curry meals taste better than mine at the moment! :(

    Also, i'm visiting the parents next weekend and have access to.... BIG SUPERMARKETS! Yeyyyy! So Tesco's, Asda and/or Morrisons will all have a good going over :D

    Just wanted to ask what are some good own brand (ie cheap :p) low syn crisps?
    I think I read that tesco cheese curls are 3 syns somewhere?

    and sorry to hear about your awry plans Skint_Catt! Let's hope thats your lot for a long long while!

    and chin up kellybigboobs, try to keep motivated! How about doing a meal plan for the week? that always makes me feel a bit more positive when i'm feeling off track.

    Can you taste them at all though? I really really hate mushy pea's but if there is no taste of them at all, I may be tempted to try it.

    [FONT=&quot]Does anyone know the syn value for Patak's Curry Sauce - hot madras?
    Tried that once, and it was delish :D

    or there is a little chinese supermarket in the city center that do a lovely curry paste, but i'm sure that it will be Syn City!

    AF,which recipe are you using?

    Generally I don't add the chicken/meat til after I've got the sauce how I like it.If the sauce is too runny add less liquid and/or reduce it by simply simmering for a while with no lid on the pan.

    Thanks for your post,I'm going to get back on plan tomorrow (today?!?) so hopefully can limit any damage!
