Jo* please could I have your recipe for the fish pie or is it already in the recipe thread? X

 

[Jo*]

Oops added Syn free fish pie above and also in recipes now

 

[HPSaucy]

Thanks for that, I didn't see the recipe before or have you just added it? Or am I going bananas??!! X

 

[Jo*]

you are going bananas......:8855:

Not really I just added it.

This recipe amazed me as its so fast if your diners are all in the house just grill it, the longest time is for the potatoes to boil and mash.

This looks yummy what's cauliflower rice though? X

"cauliflower rice" is raw cauliflower which is grated or put through a food processor on grate plate or chopped by hand so that it is finely chopped.
Put it in the microwave in a micro bowl with a little water for about 4 mins depending on amount - taste it and see if it is cooked and put it back for a couple of mins if it is not cooked and taste again then drain.
This way on a RED day you do not have to Syn or whatever your "rice" and in my opinion if you have a tasty curry you will not know it is not rice.
But I love Cauliflower - my favourite veg.

While I'm here I posted a thread in off topic I need help with buying a food processor, I need to make the wraps and would like advice on what processors you all use.

Honey what food processor do you use for the processing of mung beans and do you recommend it for other uses? I have posted on off topic?

I use a kenwood blender for the mung beans (and processor for everything else!) Buy Kenwood FP950 Multipro Libra Food Processor, Brushed Aluminium online at JohnLewis.com

Coincidentally the libra is the one of two I'm considering.

The blender you mention is it part of this set of a different one I have a jug blender that would not do chickpeas?
Have you a link to what you use?

Hi Jo!

I got the recipe for the curry from another thread here:
http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-recipes/228760-chinese-curry-take-away-style-2.html


and i got the recipe for the chicken here:
Speedy chicken and vegetable rice - Recipes - Slimming World

Hope both those links work. Let me know if they dont. It was really yummy. The only thing i did wrong was added the flour slightly wrong when making the curry sauce, it went all lumpy so instead of throwing it out i sieved it lol! Worked a treat, couldn't tell i had messed it up at all

 

[Jo*]

thanks I had gone looking for the curry sauce Gem did you use chicken stock cubes and were they knorr or oxo. i also only have normal paprika so may wait til tomorrow.
it looks yum a proper takeaway.
I do a chicken fried rice for years and have Slimming Worlded it. It would make a great addition.

Ooh i would love to know your chicken fried rice recipe! Have you posted it anywhere that i could have a look?

I used beef oxo cubes, might try the chicken ones next time to make a more curry like colour. Let us know how you get on xx

 

[Jo*]

No its in my head been adapting it for years and now do it for a family use half a roast chicken.
I will make it and post pics Monday and write up recipe properly.

 

[Jo*]

1 onion finely chopped
Frylight
1lb easy cook long grain rice ( others don't work)
2 chicken oxo
1/2 roast chicken shredded.
2 eggs
mushrooms
Dark soy

In a large saucepan.
Fry onion for a few moments to soften.
Add rice and just coat in onion and add a little frylight if sticking.
Add oxo to 2 pints of boiling water seasoned with pepper and a little salt Stir and add carefully to rice mix. Must be made and added straight away while just boiled.
Bring back to boil then turn to the lowest heat possible. Cover and cook for exactly 20 minutes.
Do not stir anytime during cooking.
If rice a little hard add a little boiling water and cook for a few minutes.
Leave to stand while preparing the rest.
Make a basic omelette and shred. leave to add at end.
In a large wok of heavy pan fry thinly sliced mushrooms in frylight then add chicken stir fry with soy sauce to taste. Then add rice gradually then shredded omelette.

I now add peas to add a bit more frees.

This is fab just for a tasty egg fried rice and add anything, prawns roast pork etc.
