I love a good chicken curry. My husband doesn't, so I don't have it very often, though.
ReplyDeleteHi Dell! It really is a treasure, and so fun to make the things my Mum made for me.
ReplyDeleteVery true Happy Cook, there's always something special about Mum's cooking.
Hi Jaime, that's a real shame... in fact my favourite recipe by my mum (her veggie soup) is one she just does from memory :-(
Hi Rosie, it was fantastic, great flavour!
I love a good chicken curry too Deborah, fortunately my hubby does like this but there are millions of things he doesn't that I love so I've to take advantage of ti as often as I can!
Ooh that looks great! White rice and Curry Chicken for dinner sounds delicious!
