Pre-cooked meat

Most of the recipes here will call for pre-cooked meat.
There are a number of ways to do this but the method I use is as follows:

Chicken:

Cut the chicken breasts into chunks.
Place in a pot of water covering the chicken.
Add 1 tablespoon of the mix powder.
Add 1 teaspoon of Methi
Add 1 teaspoon of salt.

Cook the chicken in the water for about 15 minutes until it is done but DO NOT over cook or it will become dry.

Add this to the recipe as required.


Beef:
Cut the beef into chunks.
Cooking method is the same as above but cook the beef until it is done. Depending on the cut it could take up to 1 hour or longer.


Lamb:
Cook the same as the beef, again depending on the cut the cooking times will vary.

If unsure take out a piece of the meat and cut it in two to see if it is cooked through.



The meats can now be used straight away or frozen in portions of 8-10 pieces per person serving.
