Method

  1. Sauté garlic with chicken strips, in a large non-stick fry pan that has been generously coated with cooking spray until chicken is browned.
  2. Add onion to pan and cook 2 minutes, place mushrooms into pan and cook a further 2 minutes.
  3. Add gherkins, stock powder, tomato paste, paprika and stir well.
  4. Blend cornflour into milks, add to pan stirring continuously until sauce boils, pepper to taste. Once boiled take off heat as evaporated milk can separate when over boiled.

Variation: Replace Chicken with lean rump steak.
