O Julie, I really wish I was at your place for dinner tonight instead of my place. I cooked some pork steaks tonight, and the pork was truely awful. Both kids refused to eat it. I used to be able to get beautiful pork, but the farmer no longer sells pork and I made the mistake of buying some from the stupidmarket. I hate spending good money on bad food.

I love prawns and risotto

and your photos are mouthwatering.

I made my own variation of Baf's chicken and vegetables tonight

I'll just pop over to the thread and post what I did

Shame about your pork ES but thankyou for your nice remarks everyone.

Looks nice Amy, I haven't made that meal yet.

Obbie, will have a look, thanks for that.

Kimmy, please post photos, I love looking too.

Well done Amy. Did you like it? The method is clever don't you think?

Thanks Julie and Kimmy

I love the varoma Kimmy, I should use it more often

This meal was really good, even though I used low fat cream cheese my mushroom sauce was still really creamy, and we prefer a bit of crunch to our chicken so I baked it instead

Thank you Cornish.

I know, the time just flew for me, I couldn't believe it was that long either. Didn't have much energy left after full days looking after my little grandson.

Trace Trace can you post the Malaysian Chicken Curry PLEASE

INGREDIENTS:
Oil for frying (just enough to fry your onion/garlic, etc. - I don't use a lot here as the curry paste below is quite oily in itself)
1/2 tsp dried chilli flakes, or more to taste
1 cinnamon quill (if you don't have a cinnamon quill I just add a dash of powdered cinnamon)
1 onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
185g Malaysian curry paste (I use Ayam brand "Nonya Malaysian Curry Paste" if I haven't had time to make my own)
800g skinless chicken thigh fillets, cut in half (or smaller if you prefer)
2 tbsp coconut milk (add more if you prefer it less spicy - I usually use a whole little little tin just so none is wasted - I think it's about 170g?)
2 potatoes, diced
1 tsp sugar

TO SERVE: Steamed rice, naan/roti, boiled eggs (optional)

1. Heat oil in a deep frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add cinnamon, onion, garlic and chilli flakes to pan and cook, stirring frequently until onion is soft (approx 3-5 minutes).
2. Add curry paste and stir until fragrant (approx 2 minutes).
3. Add chicken and stir until well coated (approx 3 minutes).
4. Add 125ml (1/2 cup) water, coconut milk, potatoes and sugar. Season with salt and stir to combine. Bring to the boil and then simmer uncovered for 30 minutes or until potatoes and chicken are cooked.
4. Serve and enjoy!

As I was cooking this last night I thought that it'd be pretty easy to convert into a TMX recipe but as I am very new to this I might need some help! Can anyone please help?

Thanks GF

Hally I posted yesterday with the page it was on you must have missed it

The curry was delish it has a tang to it not sure whether cp would like it if he doesn't like hot things. I wouldn't say it was hot just a really nice flavour
