Videod My Supper
« on: May 02, 2012, 05:46 PM »
Hi All
Came up with this simple idea, where I go in to a busy BIR Kitchen,
order my supper, and video the team cooking it.
This first effort, although spontaneous and a bit ropey, cut together fine.

Was going to order my 'Old School' all time BIR meal combo,
Onion Bhaji, Chicken or Beef Madras, Peas and Onion Pilau, Tarka Dhal and a Naan.

But they were just finishing off a big pan of service Dhal as I walked in.
So I plumbed for a Chicken Dhansak, Veg Pilau, Onion Bhaji and Naan.
Very good it was too...

Well, I've got no idea why I can't embed a video anymore.
Any ideas anyone

cheers Chewy

Chewytikka - so lucky. the place looks top notch and to let you have such access - fantastic.

never tried dansak before but certainly getting tempted.

loved the production and many thanks for making the effort.

we certainly still have lots to learn.

ps the spice frying part was quite timely - will try lowering the flame myself at the weekend.

Great stuff CT.  There's nothing better than a video taken behind the scenes showing the experts at work.  Thanks to those guys who are able to get access to kitchens and are sharing this with the forum. 8)

Hi Chewy

As everyone has already said - superb video - thanks for sharing with us.

Please could you confirm if this is the sauce that the chef adds to the Dhansak? - http://www.spicesofindia.co.uk/acatalog/Indian-Food-Maggi-Tamarina-Tamarind-Sauce.html

Many thanks
