Chick Pea & Tamarind Curry


Chick Pea & Tamarind Curry

ok, this one is around 5 points for the total thing

(serves 2).

1 tablespoon medium curry powder (or similar)
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp ground coriander
200 ml black tea (put tea bag in mug, make strong tea -without milk!!)
1 tbsp tamarind paste
3 medium fresh tomatoes, skinned and chopped
salt and pepper
green chilli sliced into rings
