More convenience food tonight, this time in the form of a Spice Tailor curry kit (Fiery Goan). We bought several ST kits when we were up in Yorkshire in the Spring. I have been nuturing them carefully but the time has come to deploy. I used a bag of meat from our home freezer that was obscurely labelled “Frying Steak” and added a pack of ready sliced mushrooms. The very non-keto rice (“instant pilau”) came courtesy of one of those dinky microwaveable tubs of ready-cooked rice that we find in Spanish supermarkets. We don’t have a microwave but I find that they can be stir fried very successfully. I added ginger, garlic, flaked almonds and crispy onions and heated it all up in coconut oil. It was all very scrummy and made a pleasant change from the Spanish diet of grilled protein and chips. White rice may not be keto, or even low-carb but the resistant starch effect lowers the GI very effectively, I believe (not entirely understanding the RS thing but trying to learn and it offers a reasonable excuse for dropping from the low-carb wagon once in a while. The RS thing also applies to the Patatas Bravas that we had this week. Read up on it. If you comprehend the details, please come back and tell me all about it…) I now have a ST Butter Chicken kit and a Daal kit remaining for later use. I plan to use them judiciously. I can’t find them in France and suspect that they won’t be found in either Spain or Portugal either. Not sure we have any plans to be in the UK any time soon for obtaining further supplies and prices via Amazon are pretty scary. At least we have the Holi Diwali to look forward to. #wp #gastrovanners #gastrovanner #ketovanning #convenience #food #curry #spicetailor #holidiwali
