Couple of pics of yesterdays toiling.
Deep-fried ready-made Zam Zam lamb samosas ready for reheating. I stick one whole clove in each before popping them in the oven. Old school. Served with home-made Bengali pineapple chutney and a commercial plum effort.

Zam Zam are OK, but Humza samosas are vastly superior. The pineapple chutney is awesome. Monster chilli kick to give Naga Raja a run for its money. The plum chutney was truly, grim.
Balti garlic chilli chicken dopiaza
Ready to warm up. Made with 6 cloves of garlic, 4 fresh chillies, 1 tbsp of chilli powder, 1 tsp of Mr. Naga, and 1 tsp of Janu's hot garlic chutney.

Not bad overall when the man-flu is factored in. Very nice food. Obviously not up to my usual standards appearance wise. Even the chilli flowers wilted on me, but that's due to them being soaked in ice-cold vodka, instead of water. There wasn't actually any saffron in the rice. The colour is down to turmeric and butter ghee, but saffron sounds much better. Would have been really nice rice had I remembered to add some salt. The garlic naan was Khyber Pass. Top notch.

If that's "not up to (your) usual standards", Rob, I would assume that you could teach Leith's and Cordon Bleu how to present on a good day :)

I don't know if the meal improved your cold any, Rob, but it looks a mighty spread of delicious scoff! :)

Lol, ;D Your not supposed to have an appetite when you've got the flu Rob
Anyhoo, all looks yum :P and what is the Balti element to the dish?
What's in the Zam Zam and Humza Samozas?
How cheap are the Naans on Ladypool Road?

Feeling a bit better now after consuming a whole pineapple's worth of chilli garlic chutney. Must be all the vitamin C. Thanks for the well wishes everyone. :D
The balti magic was certainly there but not sitting in the base sauce properly. I've got my thinking cap on.
Must check the difference beween Zam Zam and Humza ingredients/spicing. There's is a lot more lamb in the Humza samozas
I think naans cost

Great looking dish there fella, your usual standard!
It puts my my tex-mex fajitas to shame. ::) :P :P
