The Boss cooks Special Jalfrezi
« on: July 29, 2011, 09:17 AM »
Hi All
Having a laugh in a local BIR last night and got the Boss to
knock up a curry as the kitchen was cleaning down after a busy night.
A bit tongue in cheek as everything is very special and unique, but the
finished curry was in fact, really tasty.
cheers Chewy

Great video Chewy!  ;D

How does it come to be that you end up in the kitchen recording a video of the boss making a curry?! Obviously not some random encounter ;D You do seem to have a pretty good relationship with them. Is this the place you've got a lot of you BIR insight from?

Hi Ramirez
Naz is a good mate of 30 years and we were just having a laugh, he offered
me a supper and decided to cook it himself as the staff were busy cleaning down.

Just an impromptu vid, thought it turned out funny, especially when I asked him
what it was again, at the end.

Think I'll have to set up a Boss Master Chef Competition. ;D

Yes, this is one of the BIR kitchens I've been involved with over the years.

Malc
Just a high quality expensive Butter Ghee

Tom Puree spiced, Yes, but I don't know what with.

I do know a couple of Chefs which are using blended/sieved tinned
plum tomatoes instead of puree.

cheers Chewy

Chewy,

Absolute quality mate, i am really enjoing your contribution to CRO  ;D.

The thing i picked up mostly about the vid is that our method of cooking BIR in the home is the correct way.

Just need the special tom puree now i can guess the rest ;D

Last but not least keep off the drink  ;D ;D ;D

Alan ;D
