Here you are; The sauce and noodles I buy from Asda the noodles are fresh ones, the sauce is the Asda own sweet chillli sauce. Can get it from Tesco or Sainsbury's...I am sure. I put the pan on and heat a tablespoon of oil add chicken breast (cubed) fry until sealed then add chopped white and red onion, fry for about 8-10 minutes then add chopped or sliced (whichever you prefer) red, yellow, orange, green peppers (omit any you do not fancy) carry on frying for another 5 minutes.Never burning or browning the chicken. Then add the noodles and the sauce. Keep turning/moving never letting the noodles stick or anything burn ready about 6 minutes after the noodles go in. The wedges take a little longer Just wash the potatoes - and (if you are leaving the skin on) then simply cut them up into wedges. For medium sized potatoes I cut them in half along their longest length - and then cut them into long strips about 3 cm thick - and then cut these again in half along their width. Put all the potatoes into a mixing bowl. Pour on some vegetable oil - over the potatoes - doesn't matter if not all the potatoes get coated - you will be mixing them all up in the next step. Pour on about 2 tablespoons worth of oil. Then add the spices - and simply stir it all up until all the wedges are coated in the oily spice mixture. Then lay out the uncooked wedges onto a hot baking tray preheated oven nd stick the tray in the oven to let them roast for about 25 mins - then take them out - turn all the wedges over (which should be browned on the underside by then) and roast for a further 20 mins or so. When the wedges look done - tase one - and if it's soft inside then it's done. Just serve up and eat! I usually start cooking the stir fry when I turn the wedges. Forgot to say the spices are Garam Masala, Ground Coriander, Salt and Chilli Powder. And a tub of sour cream. Eat and edited to say no idea how I got two types of print.....  nd |

Sounds lovely Kazz. I do the home made potato wedges too. A cheats way though is to buy a packet of the spices specifically for making potato wedges, they are yummy too! |

Yum!! I always maintain that cooking from scratch never takes as long as you think it does; and much better for you (in more ways that one) that a microwave meal. Nice one Karen I shall borrow that recipe if I may |

I agree! It's creative, and sort of gets down to basic instincts. What's more basic than providing food? I greatly enjoy it; a lot of my friends say I'm mad to cook for myself instead of buying those frozen dinner things...no way!! I eat much better and healthier and enjoy doing it....... |
