- Knorr have recently launched the new Flavour Pot range and invited me to try them out. The new pots have been developed by Cameron Healy, one of the team of professional chefs that work with Knorr, they are a blend of herbs and spices in a drop of oil in each pot. There is a curry, a chilli, a garlic, a mixed herb and a peppercorn pot.
-
- Knorr sent me some ingredients along with the Flavour pots and invited me to a challenge, to cook using the pots and so like the Masterchef Invention test, I got my thinking cap on and started to plan.
- The Flavour pots can be used in hot and cold dishes, so soups, casseroles, curries, salads etc, they can also be used as a marinade.
- My eyes rested on the curry pot first as you know my fondness for spice. I decided I wanted to make a curry using the okra, which I have never tried and decided to go with a fast stove top chicken dish.
- To complement the curry, I used the kale and coconut to whip up a vegetable spicy side dish.
-
- I have also used the mixed herb pot and a garlic pot in place of dried herbs and cloved garlic to make my usual spaghetti bolognese and it gave a real fresh and more punchy taste.
- What I love about the Flavour pots are the ease of use, no fiddly chopping, no garlicky fingers and I also loved playing with the combinations, using a chilli pot with the curry pot gives a fab extra kick for those who like a bit more fire.

I'm not a fan of Okra but I think you have made it look interesting Jo. These flavour pots seem like a good idea!
ReplyDeleteNot sure how it tastes on its own. But worked curried. Thanks for commenting x

ReplyDeleteAshleigh
the peppercorn ones sound good!
ReplyDeleteFlavour shots by Schwartz taste better if you look at ingredients on knorr pots they contain no herbs.
