I love a creamy, buttery curry, but I do accept that these are only things that can be eaten very occasionally if you are on a weight-loss journey. You can still enjoy your favourite curries, you just need to make a few simple changes- and they still taste great! This Slimming World friendly chicken korma is an easy recipe and to me it still really feels like a treat, although it is only 1.5 syns per portion!

I have used coconut powder in this because it gives that lovely coconut milk flavour, but the consistency keeps the sauce for this curry creamy and not watery (often the reduced fat coconut milk is very watery). Coconut is also a great, low syn option for Slimming World, it is just 2 syns per tsp, and you don’t need to use a lot to get that fantastic flavour!

Coconut powder is not such a hard ingredient to find as you might think- you can find it in the ‘Cooks Ingredients’ section in Waitrose, Sainsburys stock it in some stores in their ‘World Food’ section, Holland and Barratt sell it, as do most health food shops. You can even get it on Amazon!

Once you have sourced it there are lots of recipes you can use it in- curries, soups, cakes! Coconut powder is also gluten-free, dairy- free and vegan.
