Had home-made Chicken Vindaloo with 120g new potatoes (no rice, no naan) on two successive days. First day I measured 8.3 mmol/L, the second day 7.9. I expected a value of around 7.3 which I usually get for same amount of chicken-only-no-curry and same amount of potato. Anyone getting raised blood sugar when eating very chilli-hot foods?
Here is the recipe:
Chicken Vindaloo 2 servings
350 chicken breast
40 ml vegetable oil
10ml (2tsp) tomato paste carb=4g
6 dried Red Bird eye chillies carb=?
25mm piece of cassia bark carb=? (see link below)
250g onions finely chopped carb=20g gi/gl=45/4(ok)
3 cloves garlic carb=3g gi/gl=45/7(ok)
60ml water
7ml ground coriander carb 1.7g
5ml ground cumin carb 1g
5ml hot chilli powder carb 1.5g
3ml turmeric carb 0.6g
2 pinches ground cloves carb=?
