Recipe: Mushy Pea Curry Sauce

Don't be put off by the name! It's definitely much nicer than it sounds and you wouldn't even know it has half the ingredients in it. This makes a nice thick sauce which you can add meat or poultry to, or have some with homemade chips for a chip shop substitute. It's full of speed foods so extra good for you :)


Ingredients:

1 or 2 onions, diced
Mushrooms, sliced
2 x tins of Mushy Peas 
1 x tin of Baked Beans
1 carton of Passata
1 tbsp Chilli powder
2 tbsp Curry powder
(I also added a bit of ground coriander & turmeric)

Method:

Using fry light and a little water cook the onions and mushrooms until soft.

Add the rest of the ingredients, bring to the boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes.

Leave to cool and blend until smooth. Recipe makes a lot so you can freeze any extra.

I usually cook any meat first and then mix into the sauce as it's reheating. The other day I coated some chicken mini fillets in curry powder and turmeric and roasted them in the oven, and just poured the sauce over when I was serving it. We had it with rice and runner beans (bit of an extra superfree/speed food boost!)

Let me know if you give it a try!
