Hi bloodcoveredprincess :). I tend to use ready made wholemeal chapattis, much easier than to make my own. If you are interested in making your own then there is a thread on here where it has been discussed, here is the link :-

If you would like to buy the ready made wholemeal chappatis, a lot of supermarkets sell them. Here is my post on the cooking instructions :-

51) Ready Made Chapattis


Chapattis are a wonderful round shaped Indian bread. Not as calorific as Naan bread but still high in syns. Chapattis are great for wraps and rolls, like chicken tikka rolls or kebab rolls, you can be as creative as you like with the ingredients, they are very filling and satisfying.

I will be posting a lot more recipes for Indian wraps and rolls using chapattis, they are quick to make and great for lunches.

Below is my favourite brand :-

Shana Wholemeal Chapatti (8 x pack)

(Found in the frozen world food section - Asda. I'm sure other supermarkets stock them too. They are a popular Indian brand).

7 ½ syns each on all 3 plans (great to go with any of my syn free curries !) :)

Preparation – Take out one chapatti from frozen. Heat a frying pan on low/medium heat and spray with frylight. Now place the chapatti in the pan. Allow to cook for 3-4 mins until you see it change colour, then flip to the other side and spray some more frylight on that side. Allow both sides to cook for 3-4 minutes each. Turn off the heat, your chapatti is ready to eat. (It is better to undercook than overcook because you can still put it on the fry pan for a few secs more if needed, but never leave the chapatti unattended, or it may overcook and you will end up with a hard crunchy chapatti, more like a poppadom ! :p

Hi Sally :), glad you liked the mince potato and pea curry. You can use the same recipe to make cauliflower and mince curry which is also a very popular indian dish. Cut the cauliflower into small florets and use instead of the potatoes, it comes out wonderful ! :p Lovely with cucumber raita and a chapatti or naan bread. Hope you enjoy cooking some more.

Cant find some of the spices needed for your Korma so got one online im going to change to sw friendly will try another of yours next week :) x

No probs , there are some good ones going around on the net too. Some of the ingredients in my recipes can be substituted or even left out depending on the recipe. Just pop in and let me know what's missing and I can give you a few good alternatives. You'll still end up with a fab tasting curry :D. Korma is a lovely rich creamy curry perfect for this time of year ! I'm sure yours must have comeout lush ! :)

Wow becs, that looks amazing !! :p Tumeric adds a golden colour to the curry, you can also use paprika instead which gives a nice rich red colour. Another substitute for garam masala is freshly ground black pepper, it's not the same but it will give the curry a kick. It looks like you did fine without both. I hope you enjoy cooking some more of my recipes. Keep the pics coming in ! If you have any questions or requests, do let me know, I will be happy to help :).
