Cooking curry and using yoghurt - help please!

[IwishIwasmoreorganised]

I'm cooking a curry for us to have tonight and am going to use a korma paste and then yoghurt to make up the sauce.

Can I cook it all now and then reheat it or will the yoghurt go funny?

Also will it freeze ok?

Right well ds2 is asleep so I have to make a start on it now!

What I think I'll do is soften the onions then cook the chicken in some of the korma paste and leave it at that until this evening when I'll add the yoghurt just as we want it to be ready and heat it all through. Does that sound ok?

Also will it freeze ok do you think?

Off to get started but will check back soon so any help will be gratefully received!

I think the yoghurt needs to be part of the marinade..

It won't go funny, I don't htbhink, if you reheat slowly.

I think.

it wont freeze terribly well because of the yoghut, but I do sometimes freeze yoghurt based sauces. You should be able to cook it all now and reheat with no problems. I've never had yoghurt split on reheating, only iof I add to much on a high heat while cooking.

Don't boil once yoghurt in - makes it go grainy. Just gentle reheat.

Also I would freeze without yoghurt, since you will want to heat it thoroughly after freezing and that means bringing to boil and that means grainy!

Hope that helps!

ok, so I'll stick to my plan I think.

I can freeze a bit once the meat's cooked through, then that'll be ready just for yoghurt once it's defrosted and the rest will be ready for yoghurt and heating through for tonights' tea

Thank you so much o wise ladies!
