Hi, I know another Korma recipe has already been posted, but this is the recipe I'll be using. It's from the latest Easy Cook (Issue 31, Winter 2010).
Small piece of finely chopped ginger
1 chopped onion
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tbsp oil
4 chopped skinless chicken breasts
1 tsp garam masala (I shall probably increase this as we like it a bit spicier)
100ml chicken stock
3 tbsp low-fat fromage frais
2 tbsp ground almonds
Lightly fry the ginger, onion and garlic in the oil, and then add the chicken breasts. Cook until browned. Then add the garam masala and cook for another minute.
Add the chicken stock, stir until everything mixed nicely and then cook for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the fromage frais and ground almonds.
Mum tried it last night (without the ground almonds) and loved it. I'll let you know how it goes down.
Hope that helps.

Its a varied and healthy eating plan and one which includes meals which i think are beautiful. Everything is made from scratch.
I get all my shopping from Tesco, fruit and Veg from our local Farm Shop and Meat from the Butchers.
Both my kids take sandwiches to school and their lunch boxes always come back empty.
Between meals i snack on fruit (and damn Creme Eggs:mad:) I always have my Dinner about 6pm because its a real struggle not to snack so i try and make sure im not hungry!The Summer Holiday of a Lifetime0 -
