Title: SPRING ONIONS !!!
Post by: DARTHPHALL on April 10, 2005, 06:38 PM: Just wanted to ask do any of the take-away`s that forum members frequent put spring onions in their Vindalloo/Tindalloo ?
as my favorite one does,and yes so do i.How much ? it looks like if you cut the Green leaves off 1 spring onion & chopped into 5mm (approx..)
pieces , that is how much in 1 take-away size portion, ( you know the trays the size of a DVD case).

I must admit the take-away i go to 99.9% of the time makes a bloody good curry & none within 100 miles can touch them (in 4 years i`ve only had 2 mediocre curries from them !!).I shall continue to put Spring Onion & Coriander in to garnish .

Spring onion and coriander are very nice, i will put them in my curry next time and try .
I know the Chinese restaurants use spring onions a lot in every thing. Honestly i never saw them in a curry , but i will try anyway they are nice edition to any thing that got meat in it.
Thanks for the idea
ghanna
