sue h - it was quite tasty. I only had 3 chicken thighs and in hind sight should have reduced the recipe to suit or added some vegetables. It was very quick to prepare and had a nice flavour. The prawn paste really goes well in this.

JD - this recipe is so delicious.  I did half the recipe, didn't have any prawn paste, only used 1 tsp sambal oelek and cut the oil down to 1 tblspn and it was perfectly spiced for us.  Thickened the sauce with a heaped tblspn cornflour mixed with a little coconut milk, there was a lot of sauce but it went well with the couscous I made as a change from rice. Thumbs up from both of us here, one of the tastiest meals we've had lately. 5/5

johnro - This was a great dish and very quick to make  after arriving home late form school (parent teacher interviews).  Thanks for posting Karen - 5 out of 5 from us as well - at Judy's suggestion served with spicy cous cous, sweet potato and pumpkin - all up a great meal!

Denzelmum - We had vegetarian version (potatoes and frozen mock chicken) and had it with steamed rice and steamed broccoli.  The whole family enjoy this, yum....  would be regular.  Thank you for sharing.

Amy - it was delicious. 5/5 from me, definitely a make-again recipe. I added a whole eggplant and my brother didn't even realise.

goldfish - only changes were 1 teasp of cumin as I'd run out of coriander and 1 teasp of chilli flakes as also out of the sambal olek.  Next time will make sure I have the coriander and if I need to substitute for the sambal olek I'd increase the amount of chilli. . . .
A lovely curry!! 5/5!

brazen - love how easy it was and taste was ok but the spices tasted undercooked, or maybe too much turmeric. Nice base but will play a little. Update - this curry tasted better each day it was leftover in the fridge.

 

Welcome Bimbigirl!
You're on your way - it's a fun ride so far!

I've had my baby for about a month - saw it first on the episode of 'Come Dine with Me' and became obsessed with finding out about it. I went to a demo and bought it the same day........had to wait two weeks - and then - love love love 

I use it every day - I cook a lot anyway so am not afraid of tweaking and inventing as I go - sometimes with more success than at other times - my kids are guinea pigs and are coping well! I think I must have made the hummus about a hundred times - and am now being asked for it by friends - so am now a dealer too .............happily I don't have to hang out in unlit alleys.........!

Nutella is a big hit, the sticky date pudding was unbelievable - I have never been a cake maker but now have the confidence to make more.

The other day I took it to visit my parents - made hummus, cheese souffle (which probably needs more tweaking - is it supposed to be runny in the middle?) cheese sauce for the cauliflower cheese and sorbet - did my own demo!!

I have realized that my idea of a blissful day off is supermarket in the morning - and bonding with my Bimbi in the afternoon - I need a bigger freezer.............

I have a chicken curry recipe passed down to me by my mum, who got it from Lee Kuan Yew (the old Prime Minister of Singapore's) mother - which works every time - is the easiest recipe ever and tastes wonderful.......my next project is to convert it, and, if I'm successful, will post it here, if that's ok.

Blah blah blah........... sorry for rambling but when a girl's in love...........what's a girl to do?!

Love Karen xx

PS - I also love the recipes you clever people post on this site - I've started a Bimbi recipe file - so am unashamedly stealing your ideas!

PS Zan - it was the last episode (Friday) of the first week of the new series!

Hello!

Greetings from Sydney - I saw the TM on an episode of 'Come Dine With Me' about 2 weeks ago - tracked down the head office with some fancy Google footwork and yesterday I went to a demo...............now I have to wait 2 weeks for my Wonder Machine and am beside myself with excitement!!
I've trawled through the Forum and can't wait to meet you all and share the fun 

Love Karen xx
