APRICOT CHICKEN CURRY



Apricot Chicken Curry image

I love apricot juice as the base for this curry dish. Chicken drumsticks are an economical meat option, but any bone-in pieces would do. Hold back on the madras curry and peppers to keep this dish mild and flavorful; adjust upward if you enjoy a lot of heat! Over rice, this is a complete meal.

PORK AND APRICOT BURGER



Pork and Apricot Burger image

A simple healthy burger great for a quick meal

Provided by e_leachums

Time 20m

Yield Serves 1

Number Of Ingredients 3

100g lean pork
25g ready-to-eat dried apricots
burger bun (I used a mini naan bread) and homemade salsa, to serve

Steps:

  • Place two thirds of the apricots (the most soft ones) in a food processor and blend until they form a paste. (if your apricots are tough soak in apple juice until soft)
  • Add the pork to the food processor and blend until well minced.
  • Turn out onto a chopping board. Slice up the remaining apricots and press into the burger mix. Shape into a patty and chill for 10 minutes if you have time.
  • Grill for 4-5 minutes on each side and serve in the bun with the salsa. Enjoy.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and texture to your curry. Some good options include carrots, potatoes, bell peppers, and onions.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. Curry is a versatile dish, so you can tailor the flavors to your own preferences. Some common spices used in curry include cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your curry. If possible, use organic ingredients.
  • Don't overcook the meat. Pork should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking will make the meat tough and dry.
  • Serve the curry with rice or naan bread. This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Pork and apricot curry is a flavorful and satisfying dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover pork.
