Dinner for one!!

When you are used to cooking for a crowd or even for two, and then you have time on your own, it can become a big chore to cook for yourself. I know I made a lot of excuses on my way home thinking to myself perhaps I could have a bit of salad, or something like a quick omelette.

But I knew that I had boneless chicken thighs in the fridge and they really did need to be cooked. So I pulled it all out of the fridge and started slicing.

Well, what I didn’t realise was that cooking up this little feast for one was just as quick as making an omelette (or nearly). It was around 25 minutes from getting everything out of the fridge and getting it onto the table and in my tum!

I love spicy food, that lovely tingle of after-burn is the sign that the level of heat is just perfect. However, while I am not quite up to the “so spicy I sweat” level of enthusiasm, I do know some people who think that there is no point to a curry if you don’t need to brow mop :). On the other end of the spectrum are those that, while they love the taste of spicy food do like just a hint of heat in their curry.

This is why I love making my own curry so I can control how much heat I put into the mix. And so can you with this Chicken Korma dish, just adjust the amount of dried chilli flakes and there you go.

This recipe is ideally best prepared the day before, so the marinade does its magic and makes the chicken tender. But if you are in a hurry, cook it up, I’m sure it will taste great! Which is more than I can say for my photography, which does not do justice to the dish!

Monday night and after a long day at work I just want to get home, change into comfy clothes and blob in front of the fire. So what to cook that takes minimal effort, hits the taste buds and uses up all the left-overs from the weekend?

Fritatta, that’s the answer. But not just any old “mix up a few eggs and stuff” one, this is super special it’s Soufflé Fritatta. We can thank the lovely Michele Tam over at Nom Nom Paleo for the inspiration for this fluffy little number.

This recipe is another one from the More or Less category, so use your imagination for the filling or just chuck in whatever is in your fridge!
