For those who failed to spot it, the Co-op recently ran an Indian meal promotion, with two main courses, two side dishes, and 4 x 330ml Cobra beers, all for the princely sum of just £8-00. Quite superb value, really, and clearly a loss-leader. As I had food in the 'fridge which needed eating up first, I was able to benefit from the advice of two friends/colleagues who went in for the same deal, which was that more chicken was needed. I therefore cut and pre-cooked two free-range chicken breasts, and added these to the two main courses I had selected (Chicken rogan josh and chicken tikka (https://shop.coop.co.uk/product/84be58d3-a9a6-41b1-b83f-5857fb3258e6)). Much to my surprise, it was the latter I preferred, although as it transpired it wasn't chicken tikka at all but rather chicken tikka masala. As well as the additional chicken, I added liberal quantities of garlic-infused and chilli-infused rapeseed oils, plentiful fresh coriander (both during cooking and for presentation) and a coffee spoon of kala namak. I just had a second portion for lunch today, served on a freshly cooked paratha, and it really was excellent. I think that I may well be willing to pay full price for this dish in future, given the ease with which it can be enhanced to yield a really flavoursome and satisfying meal.
