Friday night is definitely curry night

It's wet, it's cold and the slow cooker is back out.
Another family joining us tonight so it's;

Ruby rhubarb cocktails using the strawberry & rhubarb vodka from last week, with lime juice, lemonade and a sprig of rosemary. 
Apple, rhubarb and mint juice for the kids, using juicer.



Lamb, chickpea and spinach curry
Prawn and spinach jalfrezi for my no-meat friend (fry onions for 5 mins, add curry paste, chopped tomatoes, ginger, garlic. Simmer for 5 mins. Add prawns, after 5 mins and spinach and a splash of water if too thick)
Chicken korma for the kids
Rice, Yogurt and cucumber, Flatbreads (using Atta flour from Shipton Mill)

Dessert - Shop bought New York cheesecake which I will drown in sliced strawberries.

Quite a few pans on the go but the lamb starts much earlier in the slow cooker, making sure to hold back some of the chopped onions for the other two curries. The prawn is super quick, and the chicken korma will bubble away nicely.

I'm using Pataks curry paste to make Friday night a little easier. Jalfrezi for the lamb and prawns and korma paste for the chicken.

Bring on the weekend!
