hollys nan said:Sorry but this is what she said, its not just the dressing. I put in the details of mine into the syns calculator and it came up as half a syn per tablespoon, which isnt much really in say the bbq sauce. 2 syns for all that sauce, and between two is still worth it. Perhaps others could ask their consultants what they understand it to be?
Weigh In tonight for me, and after that it's homemade extra lean mince and red onion burgers, stuffed with Laughing Cow Light cheese triangles and topped with spicy homemade salsa :drool: Can't wait!!
Purplebint said:Chickpea curry - 1 onion chopped, frylighted over medium heat till softened, add 1 tsp turmeric, 2 tsp powdered ginger, 2 tsp cumin, 1 tsp chilli flakes (or whatever spices you prefer, I change what I chuck in from meal to meal) and cook gently for 2 mins whilst stirring the spices and onions. Then chuck in 2 chopped peppers, a tin of tomatoes, half a tin's worth of water and a tin of drained chickpeas. Stir well to mix and simmer on medium for about an hour until the sauce is reduced to however thick you like it. Chuck some fresh coriander on top to serve.
Saag Aloo - Tried and tested « Quick Indian Cooking I use frylight instead of oil, halve the amount of potatoes and use frozen or fresh spinach instead of the puree.
Lime Pickle - Life of Bint: Easy Lime Pickle I've made this years without the oil though, so syn free.
