    I'm looking at doing a bulk of dinners and freezing them, but wonder if it's safe to freeze a curry that has yoghurt in it?

    It should freeze very well. The only problem you may have is the yoghurt may seperate slightly from any liquids when its defrosted but a quick stir should sort that out.

    That was my concern but if it won't damage the food, I'll give it a shot. Thanks!

    Oh it won't damage the food at all-it could only help to be honest. Yogurt freezes exceptionally well, but any liquids blended with it may seperate out on defrosting, but you would be stirring before you serve anyway, so its really not a problem. Yogurt is a really good meat tenderiser too, one of the reasons why meat in Indian meals tends to be so much more tender than Chinese, for instance. Something to do with enzymes, I'm not very scientific but I know its the best marinade for tough meat cuts!
