Try this one.

Using lamb stew meat, goat stew, or cut up chicken, 1 pound,

Combine 1 quart yogurt with a pinch of salt and pepper, 2 tsp (heaping) medium curry powder and 1 cup apple juice.

Place the meat in the yogurt mixture, marinade overnight. Cook on medium high heat until meat is soft, thicken sauce with a flour slurry if its too thin, serve over Basmati rice

And another curry borne of desperation last night

Fry 2 onions til browning, add 1tsp each ground coriander, ground cumin, crushed garlic, chilli powder and some grated ginger and two whole green chillis. Rry for a few minutes. Add 5 fl oz water and mix. Add some diced potato (couple of handfuls) and tin of chickpeas and cook til the potatoes are cooked.

Yummy and it used up some excess potatoes form the veg box.

Missing the occasional Friday night fix I've taken to cooking a selection of side dishes to compliment a curry, including chipatis, which are my must have curry item. To make about eight take a mug of flour (white or wholemeal) and mix with enough tepid water to make a dough. Then add a couple of tsp of oil and knead for about eight minutes. You can also add stuff like chopped mint and paprika or whatever takes your fancy. Leave with a wet cloth on top for about an hour before using. Then split into as many pieces as you need and roll out thinly before dry frying on both sides in a heavy-bottomed frying pan. If you're lucky enough to have a cast iron one then use that. As you cook each one wrap them in a cloth or foil to keep them warm.

Now how to create a flock wallpaper effect...?
