COOKING TIPS:
Is there a vegetarian curry on Slimming World?
Vegetarian curry recipes are excellent for creating meat-free fakeaways. This mild curry from Slimming World is full of vegetables, red lentils, and chickpeas. Be cautious of spice/seasoning blends that contain additional ingredients such as sugar, oil, or starch. To maintain your weight loss progress, consider counting ½ Syn for every level teaspoon or 1½ Syns for every level tablespoon.
How do you make vegan coconut curry?
In just 30 minutes, you can enjoy a deliciously creamy vegan coconut curry that is packed with vegetables, has a mild spice level, and is ideal for a quick dinner. Begin by heating olive oil in a pot and sautéing chopped onion and crushed garlic along with curry powder, cumin, and coriander powder until the onions are softened. Then, add in baby corn, red pepper, sliced zucchini, and chickpeas.
How do I make a low-calorie Curry?
Apply low-calorie cooking spray to a spacious, non-stick frying pan and heat it over a medium flame. Sauté the onion for 2-3 minutes. Increase the heat to high and incorporate the sweet potatoes, curry powder, and chopped tomatoes. Mix well and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Next, introduce the coconut milk and 200ml water, and bring the mixture to a boil.
How many syns in a vegetarian curry?
In a vegetarian curry, coconut milk brings a unique touch, and despite its relatively high syns in Slimming World, even when using light coconut milk, the allocated portion of curry only contains about 2.5 syns (depending on the brand of coconut milk used). It's truly worth it for the incredible taste!
