SYN FREE CHINESE CHICKEN CURRY
Chinese Chicken Curry – Now you can Create one of the most popular takeaway dishes in your own home completely Syn Free.
It seems like the Slimming World community has gone stir crazy over a certain takeaway style sauce, which of course is none other than Mayflower Curry Sauce, which comes in both Medium and Hot heat and can be bought at various grocery stores, including online at Amazon.
When I recently popped into a British Grocery store in London, Ontario – to stock up on some UK goodies we were missing. I was surprised to see some staring at me on the shelf, and couldn’t resist grabbing a box, to take home and see what all this craze is about.
I can see why it’s popular, it’s pretty darn authentic when it comes to sauces. The nutritional information can be a little confusing though, as it gives you the nutritional information for the made up sauce when it would be much easier if the nutritional information was given for a certain amount of the dry powder/spice mix.
That aside, if made up as per the packet instructions, it will cost you 4 syns per serving according to Slimming World. Which if you have some syns spare and want a really quick meal, it’s perfect.
This recipe is gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian, Slimming World and Weight Watchers friendly.
