Aye there is, well was, Tesco used to do a Chicken in Hot Pepper sauce (sort of like a spicy cheese sauce) with a potato hash that was to die for, they havent done it for about two years now  Oh and I only ever get frozen curries, my parents dont like curries so I get some when theyre on offer and have them every now and then.

Just avoid the very cheap and nasty stuff and they aint always bad.  They aint always good either like lol

M&S tinned chicken curry is the way to go if you cant be bothered to make a proper one. Half-and-Half chips-and-rice for a meal fit for a king.

my mother usees ours nearly every day (bought a spare one in the sales too!)

much better thanb shop bought stuff

she does it without any salt in... says its better for us

yeah M&S chicken curry is really nice, tis a while since Ive had a tin, hmm might have to get one next time Im in there.  I do rather like M&S food, just finished a 2 slice pack of Belgian Chocalate Cheesecake thats devine. And no I didnt have both slices in one go before anyone asks, that would be being gready, hmmm maybe next time though.

Some shop bought bread is good, Asdas tiger bread mmmmm

Does she still salt the water she cooks the veggies in? How about mashed potato?

I now use no salt to cook with, even if Im using a recipe. Even the butter I use is salt free.

[edit] I still use soy sauce which has some salt in but thats it. [/edit]
