Hi Paul,

Having been in the services myself for 17 years, try this website. I actually found the currywurst recipe on here. I had these when in Germany and they are fabulous!

It might contain what you are looking for....... :)

If you are desperate, just call The George & Dragon in Speldhurst, say you had an amazing meal there recently and you would love to know what is in their home made Military Chutney. I bet they would be delighted to help. Otherwise, the internet is pretty bare.

Judging by these two websites it's just a variation on picalilli...not really BIR stuff.

It's a wind up guys, surely?

Otherwise, Iggy, please elaborate on what you think it is and where you have tried it please!

Its not a wind up ! I noticed it on a menu on the internet and was intigued to find out what it was. it does appear to be a variation of picalilli and I wanted a recipe.

Well I think the answer is that it's not common at all in a BIR restaurant Iggy....

....but I'm still interested to know why a new member would immediately request some obscure thing he's seen "on the internet" (and presumably never tried?) that's not a typical BIR dish?  The mind boggles!  :-\

Ahhh well, it was the word "indian" that made me think of asking on here...
