Hardly a good recipe for a diabetic!! Nice and tasty, yes. One thing diabetics have to be very careful of is fried foods and dairy that can cause cholesterol in their system. A lot of cholesterol treatment isn't suitable for diabetics. I have cut down an awful lot of fried stuff in my diet since my visit to the US - on advice from a US diabetic specialist. Short of a fried egg once in a while, we rarely fry anything at all these days. And as much as we love all those yummy creamy sauces, we have to cut those down as well coz it's not healthy. Not just because it's not healthy, but because in conjuction with a lot of other things it's easy to ratchet-up those nasty cholesterol building things that are hard to combat when you're a diabetic. We haven't chopped them out completely, just cut down how often we have them. The same for sugar. And I can't stand those sweeteners - they leave a nasty aftertaste. We don't like our tea/coffee/horlics etc without sugar - we just cut down a little. As for any carbonated drinks, whether sugar-free, diet version etc, we just don't have them at all now, not even the kids. Maybe do this recipe once every couple of months - certainly not with any regularity.
