Girlie Night In - Chicken Curry

Staying in on a Friday night, with a group of girlies, called for a homemade Indian chicken curry, a simple dessert, and a lot of wine...

To nibble I made some mint sauce, served with shop-bought poppadums.

Chicken with almonds and raisins is ideal as you can dip in and out of the kitchen, whilst chatting and drinking. It takes time, but it is so worth it. Serve with pilau rice and naan.

For dessert, unplanned, Raspberry and Cranberry Sorbet  (still some left from last weekend) worked beautifully with some strawberries and chocolate sauce. Refreshing!

And then, back to the wine...
