Peanut Butter Chicken?

[Cadeauxbury]

I seem to recall a mumsnetter telling me something about cooking chicken as a stew tyoe thingy with peanut butter and some other bits.

Can anyone remember the recipe?

I want to try it tonight if possible as I have lots of casserole veg to use up and some chicken drumsticks.

[Auntybrandybutter]

might be here

[Cadeauxbury]

Thanks Aunty mandy, looks like I can adapt that for drumsticks etc. Will probably double quantities.


Does anone else have anything different?

[MarsyChristmas]

'twas me Cadders who told you about peanut butter chicken.

Yes you can use drumsticks, but I also add a little chilli to give it that little bit extra.

I used tinned tomatoes.

It's really easy and very very lovely. In fact... I may cook it next week now that it's in my mind. Don't use too much water otherwise you'll end up with boiled chicken. You can blend the sauce at the end if you like.

[Cadeauxbury]

I knew it was someone I was chatting to!

Thanks for the tips mars. How are you? Good Christmas?

[MarsyChristmas]

Very good Christmas. House looks like a home now and not a dumping ground lol.

How was your Christmas? Things better?

[Cadeauxbury]

Things improving here. Quite nice Christmas. Still finding going to church a bit hard. Will get there though.

[MarsyChristmas]

The Church bit will get easier... I promise. Just trust!

You're still on my list.

[Cadeauxbury]

thankyou. can't aford to keep making a fool of myself at church becasue lots of people are wanting to know why.

[MarsyChristmas]

just tell them that you can't quite work out why you are so tearful, but that you are sure God knows what he's doing.

That should quieten them down for you babe.


You could tell them that you've met me and it's shaken you to the very core lol!!!!!!!

[Cadeauxbury]

but it has!!!!!

Fancy getting together for a lunch in london somewhere in the new year?

[MarsyChristmas]

absolutely!

The DTs go in at 12.45 and are out again at 3 so if we sort the date, I'll sort someone to either drop them off or pick them up.

Which day of the week is best for you?

[Cadeauxbury]

Probably a Thrusday or Friday so that my dad can pick up dd from school

[MarsyChristmas]

Thursdays are brilliant for me.

So let's set a date now whilst we are thinking of it.

Will just go get my brand new gorgeous gorgeous diary and you can be the first entry.

[Cadeauxbury]

fab, I'll get my calendar

[MarsyChristmas]

Okey dokes ready when you are

[Cadeauxbury]

well, thurs 13th looks a possibility

and the 19th

and 26th

[MarsyChristmas]

Thursday 12th it is!

Now.... where shall we meet and what time are we aiming for?

[Cadeauxbury]

Oh yes, it is the 12th isn't it!

Ok, will go for that. Shall we try and meet in Waterloo or Victoria? That would be easiest to get to for me and we could source some grub from there?

[MarsyChristmas]

I can get to either easily. Victoria might be good cos iirc there are a lot of eateries there.

So why don't we say Victoria.

So date and place.... now for time

What time would suit you best?

[Cadeauxbury]

err, earlyish for lunch so I'm not too late getting back - say 11 or 11.30?

Will almost certainly have ds with me. We come as a package these days!

[MarsyChristmas]

Excellent! That way I'll be back in time to pick up the DTs and the others.

So let's say 11 for 11.30, that way you should have enough time to arrive. It'll be lovely to meet your DS (especially as you've met all of mine lol).

It's a done deal. 12th Jan, Victoria, 11am. In my diary now!

[Cadeauxbury]

YAY! and you are in mine. Will text nearer the hour to arrange exactly where.

[MarsyChristmas]

Shall we meet in the entrance where the black cabs are? Just inside though so as not to get too cold. The cabs might hold DS's attention should we miss each other. I'll have my mobi and you have the number.

[Cadeauxbury]

its a date.
