Had a curry night for a few friends on Saturday. Didn't have starters, but made onion, tomato and cucumber chutney, yogurt and cucumber chutney, spicy onion and tomato chutney, along with purchased mango and lime pickle (no photos of these, sorry). Bought the pre-made popadoms (don't have a deep fat fryer).
Main meals were chana masala, chicken korma, chicken masala (not tika), lamb jalfrezi and tarka dhal.
I bought a large 3 tray hotplate thing a good few years back which is ideal for keeping the meals hot while you carry on cooking. Plus a small double electric hob from Lidl!
Rice was finished in the oven at around 120oC to keep it warm and loosen it up.
Lot of preparation work and cooking (started at 1pm, finished around 6.30pm), but everyone loved it all!
To finish off, wife made some chocolate brownies which were awesome! Totally stuffed and knackered!
MY home made spatter guard! Obviously no good for gas cooker as it's made out of cardboard!

Looks great, meggeth! I don't envy you your prep, but it certainly looks as if it was worth the effort! :)

Good looking home curry cooking :D
Getting over the obstacle of a new kitchen
Personally, I would leave that to the wife and move into a curry shed ;D
Making the best of an Electric Hob, but you do need FIRE for good BIR style, No Myth.
cheers Chewy ;)

Looking good :P I take it the guest were suitably impressed with the fare?

Brilliant post Meggeth, food looks great.

Great effort and great looking grub meggeth, very satisfying cooking for a crowd.
I never use a deep fat fryer but rather just a wok for my poppodoms.
Your splatter guard certainly saved some splatters and some grief from the mrs ;)

Guests were impressed CH! "Better than going the restaurant", they said! Not quite sure that's correct, but I'll take it!
CT, be interesting to compare 2 home made curries using electric and gas. I think people would be hard pressed to tell the difference, however gas is definitely more controllable, and would make cooking curries easier. Now if I could have one of those 200kw gas cookers from a BIR, I'm sure I'd notice the difference! ;D
