Title: Mild curry recipes needed!
Post by: Madrasandy on August 06, 2014, 10:38 AM
Morning all, I have 12 family members coming to mine on the 16th August. My sister-in-law is emigrating to Australia, so I sending them off with their final decent Indian curry  ;D

I have always cooked curries on the hotter side, but she has requested a mild curry, says mine are normally too hot for her, even when I reduce the chilli, but heres where the problems begin. I do NOT cook, like or eat mild sweet curries.

So heres where you can help , what are good mild curry recipes on here? What does anybody recommend?

Cheers

Bhuna chicken would be my firm recommendation; none of the nauseating sweetness of chicken tikka masala or the banalness of your average korma, but a good savoury dryish curry with a depth of flavour that  is hard to better.

Hi MA sounds like you also will be cooking on a grand scale ;D it will be great experience and lots of prep!!
I think I would also go the Bhuna road as it's so similar to what u are used to cooking, and tastes great :)

Hi This is my first post, I am a newbie  :)
Lamb Pasanda is a mild favourite of mine. I love the almonds.

Although not exactly BIR, I found this Chicken Butter Masala dish really good for a mild/creamy curry hit:  http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,13119.msg107534/topicseen.html#msg107534 (http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,13119.msg107534/topicseen.html#msg107534)

MA
Do a Medium Chicken Curry (No Chilli Powder or just a touch)
Then do the same again but turn it into a Rhogan with a Tomato Top.

Watch my video recipe, to get the idea. ;)

Good luck with it, have fun.
cheers Chewy

I can vouch for CAs Korma and Stephen Lindsay's Butter Chicken.

Cheers Garp, does ca korma need a little black tash adding?
Title: Re: Mild curry recipes needed!
Post by: Garp on August 06, 2014, 02:29 PM
I add a dash of self delusion and a pinch of arrogance ;D

But it is a good dish bud.

That's where kedgeree comes in. The breakfast dish of (Indian) champions!  ;D

Actually it's also a very nice mild rice dish if you have fish lovers at the table.

Wouldn't fish lovers be upset to find that they were eating flaked pieces of one of their favourite animals (smoked), mixed in with the rice, egg, parsley and spices ?

Hi

Mickdabass's ( i like the anissed and the heat), Chewy's (I like the mustard in this )  and Blade's ( i like the simplicity and taste) in no particular order. I am using Laziza pastes where i have that in lieu of Pataks or Pascoes

Cheers

Phil S

No yogurt, no Pataks, no worries  ;D

Cheers Phil I do like blades but I do not like pataks and I havent been able to get hold of any laziza pastes as of yet.

Having great success with Chewy's here, fully recommend adding the optional honey instead of sugar.
