    Another bargain dinner! Less than a pound for curry, rice and a bread… would you eat this, or do you need the meat in your curry?

    South Asian style food is not my thing, so I cannot make much comment. Go to East Asia and cook a Chinese, Japanese or Thai curry and I will be your best friend forever. I love Thai Green Curry, but I think that would be impossible for under £1.
    Again, Greeno, thank you for highlighting food on a budget. This will help so many people.

      Absolutely, I would have used coconut milk had the budget allowed... Trying to make meals under a pound a portion means compromise somewhere along the line.

    I made a pea soup using a pack of dried peas, some onion and a pack of that cheap cooking bacon. I had no carrots unfortunately. After soaking peas as directed, I cut the fat off the bacon and shoved the lot in the pressure cooker for 15mins. The bacon just breaks up when cooked. There was about 6 servings. Just add a couple of slices of bread to dip in

    • @GreenoEats

    C’mon then let’s see if you can succeed…
    No meat??? 😲 It’d have to be on a meat free day then (once a week)
    As I’ve said before people need to learn how to cook and buy ingredients which last for multiple meals rather than pricey ready meals/ pizzas etc 👍
    To make the sauce once the onions, garlic, curry powder, tomatoes etc cook down blend it then add back to pan with vegetables to cook down and thicken up 👍
    Would have helped if you’d swapped either the lentils or chickpeas for a can of tomatoes as you need sauce 👍
    Butter bean curry is cheap and great for meat free days (Mauritian) 👏
