Rediscovered an old favourtie

[kim63]

I keep meaning to try the peanut butter curry but boyfriend doesn't like peanuts so will have to do some for lunches one day.

Also finally bought some peanut butter so can have my peanut butter and banana or jam sandwich when I have the syns spare.

You must try the 2nd version of Pete's PB Curry Donna as its scrumptious!
DH always has a PB & banana wholemeal bread sandwich after a long bike ride & swears by it to re-fuel, so it would be good for you after a long run......protein, healthy complex carbs & superfree

Yeah I was really looking forward to that after my run yesterday but then realised I didn't have the peanut butter in. Will def be something I have after long runs in the future though (bit disappointed this week as only doing a 10k race at the weekend lol... might still have it after one of my shorter runs as long as its all counted in my syns

I am scared of having a jar of peanut butter in the house - there's a very real risk I'll just go mad and start eating massive spoonfuls of it.

Looks gorgeous and just realised that my boyfriend is away for a few days in a few weeks so I could make it then!

Donna, you could make it anyways & see if he likes it, as it doesn't taste particularly peanuty, the PB just works in the flavour combining with all the other ingredients. If he doesn't like it, you could always freeze it in portion sizes for you.

I suppose it is worth trying as a one off, if he doesn't like it then I won't do it again. Is it anything like a satay sauce? He doesn't like that lol

No, nowhere near as strongly flavoured as Satay as thats mainly PB, its a more subtle flavour & in all honesty if you didn't know the PB was in it, you may not be able to tell. The sauce is just stunning & even my Mum took the recipe & she's a right fussy b***** when it comes to food lol!

Lol - I'll give it a go one evening and see what he says he usually does the curries in our house, but to be fair I'll just say I felt like trying to make one myself, then if he likes it he can have the recipe.

I always make double bumpers of it & put loads of chicken in it & manage to split it into 5 portion which drops the syns down to 3 per portion!
