I think with the cold setting in quite strongly here I have been craving warm and comforting food. But for some reason instead of my tastebuds yearning for soups and stews, pasta bakes and pie, I have been hankering after a good curry.<\/span><\/p>\n

So in the last week I have cooked three. One: Cauliflower and Spinach, Two: Chicken Reendang , Three: Chicken, Aubergine and Mango<\/span>
\n <\/span><\/p>\n

I think some people can get quite scared of cooking a curry, because all of the different spices, but in fact often it can be a pretty simple and very scrumptious supper.<\/span><\/p>\n

So I encourage you to have a go. As all that chilli really is the cheapest central heating you can get.<\/span><\/p>\n

The simplest and quickest was my Cauliflower and Spinach, perfect for a mid week supper, so I thought I would share it with you now. I made this entirely of things I already had in the house and cooked enough for lunch the next day – What a bonus! I will warn you this isn’t entirely From Scratch for this I used a shop bought curry paste to intensify the flavour. I \u00a0know, awful, going against the whole point of the blog and I wasn’t going to share the recipe but it was so darn scrummy I thought you would forgive me in this instance. I will do a future blog on curry pastes I promise, but for right now I hope you enjoy this.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ingredients:\u00a0\"Cauliflower\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

1\/2 Cauliflower chopped into smallish peices<\/span><\/p>\n

1 bag of spinach<\/span><\/p>\n

1 onion<\/span><\/p>\n

1 tin tomatoes<\/span><\/p>\n

1tsp tumeric<\/span><\/p>\n

1tsp cumin<\/span><\/p>\n

1 tbsp curry paste<\/span><\/p>\n

Method:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Slice your onion and gently fry in a pan<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Add your cauliflower, tumeric and cumin and mix<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Add your curry paste and stir for 2 mins<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Add tin tomatoes and spinach and leave to simmer for 30 mins<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Serve with rice or naan, salad and a spoon of mango chutney<\/span><\/p>\n

If you are feeling a bit nippy this will definitely warm you up. Bon Appetite!<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead of this, tonight I will be playing that age old classic – what can I make for dinner out of the leftover ingredients I have in my Fridge. If only Jam was an acceptable dinner choice! I promise to share whatever I make, here’s hoping it’s something worth sharing.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
