Chip shop style curry sauce – quite healthy and delicious! Use it as a side dish, dip or make a standalone dish by mixing in bits of cooked chicken and green peas.

1 onion, finely diced
1 large apple, peeled and finely diced (yes, apple. I use Royal Gala. It should be quite sweet)
1 clove garlic, finely chopped or minced
curry powder (as much as you can handle)
1 tbsp plain flour
250-300 ml stock. beef cube is fine. you can use veg stock as well
black pepper
Put the onion, apple and garlic into a frying pan, add a bit of water and cover. Cook over a low heat for 5-10 minutes, until everything is very soft.

Add the curry powder and flour, and mix well. Add more curry powder. A bit more. And another bit. (Tasting in the process is highly recommended. I use about 4 heaped tsp of Hot Madras Curry from Morrisons). Add some more curry powder.

Pour over the stock and add plenty of black pepper.

Bring to a gentle simmer, and cook for around 10 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes, until the mixture is thick and the vegetables have cooked right down.

I like bits of apple and onion in my sauce, but feel free to blend it if you prefer smoother texture.

This recipe is based on recipes I found over internet, but I’ve *perfected* it for you!
