Well i made the chow mein tonight it was lovely and my husband loved it so much he wanted more lol. I used rice noodles that had spring onions in it that I got from asda which had a lot less grams of fat than normal noodles and they where lovely. You had suggested adding terraky for some flavour and it was the only spice I didnt have so I added chinese 5 spice and It gave it a kick. Im having the curry monday night and got the fat free yogurt in so will let you know how it goes

I got your recipe for the chicken tikka masala and got everything I need to make it but one thing on the ingredients you wrote was sauce flour. I have no idea what this is? is it corn flour lol sorry I dont have a clue x x

 

[Kes]

hi ya.. from memory, the recipie we used, had come from a fairly old book..... i dont think we used it, because ive not put it in the instructions...... i would honestly say i dont know what it is.....

and if memory does serve me right we didnt use it... the yoghurt did look like it seperated a little but it didnt taste bad at all!

 

[Kes]
