It is in one of my Indian curry books, it does say little pork is eaten in India. Pork, mushrooms and chopped tomatoes with a base of onion,ginger, chilli ,curry paste and ground coriander cooked slow in stock. Then its coconut cream and ground almonds to finish. I have made this lots and it always comes out great.

I like chicken curries.  Never tried pork, although I have tried beef curry.
Plus vegetable curry.

Not sure what I am doing today yet as waiting for the pain killer to kick in, getting better though so far. Trouble is it never fully healed after last spasm and I have aggravated it again ,managed a good nights sleep once I found a position to lie in.
  I got bored yesterday and ended up making an Indian semolina pudding, not very healthy as it has equal amounts of butter to semolina and a lot of sugar. Tasted good with a banana for dessert though!!

This recliners can be nice.  I hear that some of them are designed for sleeping too.
I think some that are emphasized for that feature are the Flexsteel Zecliner models.

Most of these are not that good, and most in car seats are not that good either.

I have a second hand armchair I didn't notice it was a recliner and it had a vibration massage function. It does absolutely nothing for me personally. I think they are a gimic. If you want to recline sit on the sofa! You can't get out the damn things once your reclined!

I could fancy a chaise lounge actually!

Woops I dropped an H, cant bend down to pick it up either!! Taking its time to recover, getting better slowly. I have to stay in today anyway as my new router is coming and has to be signed for. Now do I do a small cheese and beetroot sarnie for lunch with cucumber and tomatoes or couscous with beetroot, cucumber and tomatoes?

Sounds more like a griddle scone? I've never tried them actually.

I make drop scones differently, it's almost like a yorkshire pudding batter, no butter but includes caster sugar, baking powder, egg and lemon zest but no currants (they're scotch pancakes really) then I drizzle honey or lemon juice over them when they're still hot. I haven't done that for ages actually, could really go for a few of those right now!

Whoopsy I left castor sugar of the list of ingredients, its a traditional Welsh drop scone but more dense in mixture . You have to but butter on them as well, not good for the waist line.
 Hoping the pills kick in quick this morning as need to get out before I start climbing the walls!!

Like I say I haven't had them for ages but I used to hate butter on stuff but have since discovered that if it is melted I like it. Weird (same goes with most cheeses too). I'll have to have another go at them and try them with butter on!

Hope your pain meds take the edge off!

Sounds like you're having a rough few days. Hope you get to feel better soon and betting you're keen to get back working on Friday.
