What's for tea at your house tonight?

I have a few good ways of making curry! It's WAY cheaper, and it's not full of fat like all the curries you can get around here are. Do you have the recipe?

The boy made some when he was here with green curry, and he told me what to "whack together."  I basicallu uh-huhed on the phone and did it my way which was:

Rough chop chicken, onion, and peppers.  Saute with garlic and olive oil.  Then I added red curry paste, a can of coconut milk and fresh cilantro.  And then I threw in a jalepeno for good luck.  It was deee-lish! What's your fave recipe?

Oh, similar! I do the Green Thai Curry. It's our favorite. We do it pretty much the same, except I add basil instead of cilantro, and i usually add quite a bit of sugar. I like my thai curry to be sweet. And a lot more veggies.

I also make a really easy curry using tinned chopped tomatoes. This is more Indian style I guess. Chop/sauttee the chicken, onion, and peppers, then add a can of tinned chopped tomatoes, LOTS of cumin, then some coriander, cayenne, paprika, chili powder, salt and pepper. At the end stir in some natural yogurt and lots of cilantro.

Asda has this really cheap jarred curry sauce - it's like 9p or something stupid. But if I mix it with the chopped tomatoes and lots of cumin, it tastes like I made it from scratch! It's ridiculous.

When I get back to the UK (if I get into grad school) I will have to try that.  The boy was very dissappointed by the curry paste selection here, but the green curry he made was still yummmy!

I had my mom's spaghetti and meatballs last night! Yum! 
No idea on tonight...

Oh, I ended up using a jar of Healthy Living Jalfrezi sauce from the Co-Op last night (it was cheap, but definitely cost more than 9p!  That's unreal!) and it was actually the best dang curry from a jar I have ever had. It had chunks of peppers and tomatoes in it and was surprisingly spicy. I added a big dollop of the Fage Total 0 fat yoghurt on the top and mixed it in and it was deliciously scrummy and low cal/low fat, even with a mini naan on the side. Highly recommended! 

I usually use Patak's curry paste with added onions, chiles and ginger and coconut milk, etc, but I was in a rush and used the jarred stuff and was surprised at how nice it actually was. Plus I read the ingredients and there wasn't anything bad in there that I couldn't pronounce or anything, it looked and tasted very natural.

I think were having sausage & rice that could change who knows Dh keeps changing his mind when it come to dinner time. but like I said before Dh is the cook in our house so I usually don't mind when he changes his mind as long as its something we both like to eat.   

Sausage and mash. 

Pizza and salad

Spinach and ricotta pizza.

Thai green curry!

Chorizo & white bean soup/stew...must send DH out for crusty bread to go with it.  And maybe, I think, white wine that we were going to have one night on our holidays when DH ended up getting sick...now that we seem to be feeling okay again.

Blackened chicken breasts topped with avocado-mango salsa along with lime & coriander basmati rice and a green salad. Mmmmm.

But I seriously can't wait to share what I have marinating in the fridge for tomorrow night: http://www.gastronomydomine.com/?p=269

I can't wait to try it! It looks soooo yummy. We're having that with some egg fried rice tomorrow night. I've been waiting to make this for ages and finally found a pork tenderloin at Sainsburys. Yippeee!

We had steak and sushi! I made california rolls, shrimp tempura rolls, avocado rolls and cucumber rolls. And wine!
