I love fresh Coriander so much I wouldn't even consider cooking a curry without it and of course birds Eye Chilli's these 2 ingredients completes any Curry dish for me hands down

As long as the Curry is good I'll sit out on the pavement and eat it  ;D

Ha Ha Ha   

Yes Darth I'm into poking things specially food  ;D

Seriously though if you overcook / boil chicken then it is going to spoil the finished dish by being tough and lets face it the cost of chicken breasts are ridiculous.

I strongly advise all our members to buy one of these little probes they are worth their weight in gold !

Thanks very much for the help, it seems I have been overboiling the chicken (approx 25mins) until they were tough. I have tried both methods given and the much shorter cooking time makes the difference......thanks again

The best and Only way to test your chicken fillets or any other cooked Food products is to use a food Probe end of story !

I use one every day they don't cost a lot there's no need to time your chicken 10 mins or 15 mins why take the chance of giving someone food poisoning just start probing your product after lets say 5/6 mins then as soon as the temp hits 70 degres remove the product.

If the meat is tough you know you have bought a product which is probably below standard sling it out or give it to the dog and don't buy from that outlet again.

Hi Econa

Hi Weggo

Welcome to the world of Spice and all things nice !

Hi Julie,

The spice blend is a mix containing the following spices =
Coriander 8 Parts
Turmeric 7 Parts
Cumin 5 Parts
Curry Powder 4 parts
Paprika 4 Parts (optional)

Myself I prefer to use the spices individually as needed as Iv'e shown in my recipe above anyway if you find it easier to make a batch ready this is what it is ok.
