Title: Garlic chilli chicken bhuna vs Garlic chilli pork madras
Post by: Kashmiri Bob on October 23, 2013, 10:36 PM
Neither of these look much but taste-wise the bhuna was probably my best curry to date, excluding ex-hots.


Similar start for both dishes:

Incredible depth. A true BIR ruby. Mind-blasting.

Pre-cooked pork.  Black cardamom and ajwain bagar. Not bad at all.

Hi Rob
Its getting hard to tell the difference between curries you cook
and the ones you buy in
A very good sign, me thinks. ;)

Some may say they look heavy on the oil, as they settle in the cartons
but you can easily spoon it off, or use a handy syringe like myself ;)

Anybody notice how these Ali cartons seem to weep/leak these days! must
be porous to an extent. :-\

curry on

When's the e-book coming out Rob?  :o  ;D
Good looking dishes as always mate.  Look forward to trying some of these during the Autumn / Winter months.  May even give your baby food ones ago  ;)

Thanks guys.  Hoping to reproduce the bhuna.  Playing around with a home-made curry paste recipe here.  Other than this it's pretty standard(ish).

My efforts do generally look laden with oil.  But I do like dishes that need a fair bit of separation.  Might seem counter-intuitive to some starting out, but my curries are actually quite low-fat compared to many (e.g BIRs).  I rarely use more than 1 cs of oil per curry.  More oil of course via the base gravy, pre-cooks, garlic paste, etc.  But if the oil is nicely separated you have options, whereas if it isn't, you're pretty much stuck with it.  The options include removing some/most of it by, spooning off, syringe (nice one Chewy), or, for dry dishes, chasing it off with a little base gravy.  Another option is to eat it.  I mostly just "lift" the curry out of the excess oil onto a plate, leaving the majority in the carton.  I have to watch my figure after all.  :D.  Here's the pork curry again.

Not exactly diet food mind. Decent separation also gives more scope with textures for some dishes, and taste.

E-book out shortly Dave.  Whole chapter on the mighty Phal, so you'll be able to upgrade that seedy/muesli effort of yours.  ;D ;)

Good to hear it Rob.  Release date  ::)  I'm glad to hear you're going to have section for the younger diners so I know where to find the phall  ;)
And there's nothing wrong with my museli.  Try it, it'll keep you regular all day long  ;D ;D, and it's all natural with no additives  ::).  Positively orgasmic, oops I meant organic.  Whatever, guaranteed to affect an organ or two  anyway even with the spices cooked out properly :o
