A few weeks ago, we bought some Quorn chunks to make a curry, they were still sitting in the freezer so I got on with it. We like Quorn and use both the mince and chunks and have used on occasions, the 'beef' strips. All are fine for us.
Its a bit like Tofu in that on its own, it has little or no taste, but readily picks up the taste of what it is put in, especially if served the day after it is cooked.
I fried 1 onion, 1 green pepper and a tub of mushrooms:
1/4 of a jar of Madras curry paste was added and gently fried before 2 cans of pureed chopped tomatoes went in:
It cooked for 30 minutes before 1 1/2 packets of Quorn chunks were added:
Another 20 minutes, an added chicken stock cube and some oat bran to thicken and it was ready:
We had one portion between us (3 ladles), plus rice, and got enough for another 3 joint meals.
Looks like a good simple meal.
ReplyDeleteAnd very tasty too. I use oats a lot to thicken things.
DeleteI use oats as a thickener too - it works a treat. The curry looks delicious!

Quite good for us too!
DeleteLooks delicious. A great tip to use oats as a thickener, I will try that.
ReplyDeleteIf I remember, I chavel oats in a blender to get oat flour, that works the best. Just stir it in.
