I know, I love coconut based curries but worry that they could be too fattening also butter chicken too...again tho im looking for something healthy! So a nice rich sauce dont mind heat but not rich on the calories! Dont know if its possible! xx

This one uses yoghurt, not cream: http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=10298

With coconut milk: http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=10524

Here the cinammon gives flavour, which may compensate for lack of cream: http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=10011

Add spinach? http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=10033

Mum's basic curry, I adore this: http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=10106

Green curry but not a Thai one: http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=10481

A white curry: http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=13261

The two with cream/ coconut milk probably not AS healthy as the others, but always find home-cooked food healthier than restaurant versions.

Lucky you !! I wish somebody would donate me huge amounts of chicken breasts with a few legs of lamb thrown in. I would feeze them and at leisure cook curries, tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, lamb tikka, etc..... Oh Nice dream, please don't wake me up!!!

The only abnormal amount of food I have been given was dozens of trout that had somehow got electrocuted on a fish farm!

I was eating them until I had trout coming out of my ears and I grown aprominent dorsal hump.

You can make curry (Kavey has already suggested a few ideas) enough for two meals, today and then in a couple of days. With the rest, make tandoori chicken and freeze portions for two. For freezing, slightly undertook it, so that you can reheat and brown it before you eat.

I am always freezing leftover tandoori chicken. Kavey and Pete had some for lunch today, leftover from day before yesterday!

If they are fresh enough, you can freeze a few in portions for two, I would use sandwich bags for this.

Many for your kind suggestions... I ended up making mums curry was lush! Was a hit with the old man too.. I think I will make the tandoori chicken today and freeze the rest..xxx
