 I am nuts about nuts… Love them all, although I have a slight allergy for them. Ever heard of the most common allergy which is apple, raisins and walnuts? Well, I have it.. Really nothing serious; but whenever I eat a raw apple or walnut (once used in something I’m fine) my throat, ears and...

Most of my friends are like that also dinner MUST be hot while I can have it hot or cold or warm so long as it is food LOL LOL. What a lovely result you got it looks stunning (as always) I just love your photography and do try the Asian noddle salad everybody raved about it and do use all the garlic it is so delicious I used it for the rest of the week. Thanks for the kind words on my blog. Cheers from Audax in Sydney Australia. [Reply]

Just saw Renee’s version of this and bookmarked it, now I am really thinking I need to make this sooner rather than later as yours looks wonderful also. Fun to read the post, and thanks for the recipe. I have never made a nut butter before so I am intrigued by getting to have a new experience. [Reply]

Everything look delicious. I also made almond butter but blanched them first and got rid of the skin. [Reply]

Your photos are just stunning! Great job on the challenge – everything looks amazing! [Reply]

Beautiful job! Your almond butter looks like it turned out perfectly, and I do think that is the best looking chicken with curried tomato almond sauce I have seen yet! [Reply]

YAY!! you made Indian!!! how did you like it?? tell me tell mee! [Reply]  Simone (junglefrog) Reply: Haha! I loved it! But then I have always loved Indian food.. [Reply]

Great recipe. I love that you created a curry dish. For some reason, I don’t associate nuts with curry. This recipe is a perfect marriage between curry and nuts [Reply]

I have never made nut butter from almond or cooked anything that involves almond nuts. Your chicken with curried tomato almond sauce is itself a cooking invitation for me to try it for the first time since your photos are so convincingly delicious. Sawadee from Bangkok, [Reply]

I always have to be careful when I come to your site because I can sit here and get lost in your pictures for way too long. You are so talented! Your curry and nut butter looks delicious! What a great challenge. [Reply]

I’ve never made my own nut butter before but longing to give it a go now – looks wonerderful. Great idea to use it in a curry [Reply]

Dinners must be hot. That’s a new one on me. Sounds like you take it in stride! GREG [Reply]

The almond butter sauce sounds delicious! Looks like a must try. And, you’re right about salads. They’re definitely a good option for dinner during hot weather. (I live on salads during the summer!) [Reply]

It’s funny that Tom insists on having a hot dinner. In the winter, I insist on having at least one hot meal a day, but in the summer, I’m more than happy to live on salads, sandwiches, and cold soups. The thing about the noodle “salad”, though, is that it can easily be turned into a stir-fry (just take out the cucumbers), which would also be good. Maybe you could try that? Anyway, your chicken looks very delicious, and I love your photos of the almonds! [Reply] Simone (junglefrog) Reply: You’re absolutely right about that noodle salad being able to be turned into a stirfry! I think I can easily fool Tom that way… lol… I could eat salads or other cold stuff these days without any problem whatsoever! [Reply]

Great idea to use the nut butter in a curry dish Simone…clever! I’m mostly a salad eater in hot weather! [Reply] Simone (junglefrog) Reply: Yep, me too… I am soooo gonna make that asian salad soon! [Reply]

Oh my gosh! That first picture of the nut butter makes me want to make it … AGAIN! So delicious and beautiful! [Reply]

It’s so hard to pick a favorite nut butter, but almond is probably the one I buy most often. Your homemade version looks incredible- so much smoother than I can usually get mine! [Reply]

Simone, this looks like a wonderful dish. Do you think it could be made with cashew butter instead of almond? I’m wondering if the buttery flavor of cashew would go with these spices… Gorgeous photos, as usual! [Reply]

Simone..this dish I wanted to make so bad, but just didn’t have the time, mouths to feed, or energy. Seeing yours, I soo wish I did and now will. SO beautifully executed and photographed. I swear..if and when I get married, I want you to photograph it..along with the food (or just follow me around, you’ll get plenty of pictures of me gorging on the food) LOL [Reply]

What a great recipe. I love nuts in cooking and this looks absolutely delicious. Many people want something hot for dinner, but I like cold foods in general, even when it is not as hot! You should also have a bbq now that the weather is so good. [Reply] 
Jennifer @ Maple n Cornbread - July 18, 2010 - 12:17
As always, beautiful pictures!!!! I love the sounds of the almond butter in the curry! Fabulous idea!!! I make homemade almond butter weekly so its always on hand! Saving this! thanks! [Reply]

This looks great and yummy! I’m going to try this, my husband is kind of Indian (sounds stupid but his roots are from India) so he has to like it. [Reply] 
Adriana from Baking Powders - July 22, 2010 - 15:48
my goodness! homemade almond butter sounds like the perfect pairing for lots of things, included that chicken, great combo! [Reply]

Wow! It looks delicious! I must try it! Thank you for sharing! [Reply]

I am nuts about nuts, too, but cannot imagine that the almonds would hold a balance of flavour in a curry, so I am not surprised they were not overpowering. I think the texture would be nicer with the nuts not being so smooth. I am surprised that they held their own within the flavours. Really. It looks lovely. [Reply] |
