Title: Easiest curry for 10 people?
Post by: dazp on December 14, 2011, 02:01 PM

I'm looking to put on a curry night for a few friends before xmas and I would ideally like to have it all prepared in advance so everywhere is cleaned down and all I have to do is crack open the beer and serve up!

Suggestions please!

Hi Dazp

I thought i'd reply as not to appear ignorant, but I normally cook for about 4 people and ask for their curry individualy and cook one by one. I've never done a BIR for 10 people but maybe one of our more senior members have. I think a big casserole pot in the oven maybe the way forward  on this one so the smell permeates.

Starters should be easy enough though as there are some great ideas on here and IG's bhajis (scaled down version) makes about 10.

I'd be interested to what the other forum members think too

Good luck and let us know the outcome :)

After checking chewytikka's suggestion,if you still feel you would like anymore help thinking of the menu for starters and main course, then let me know on here and I will try to give you a guideline for 10 people.

This is pretty easy and really tasty, I've done it for 8 people.  Not really BIR style though...

Hi Dzap,

I often do curry nights for 12-14 guests.  Basically, Friday is for prepping and Saturday is for cooking.

I usually do 5 different curries, cooking no more than 2 single portions at a time to a maximum of 3 portions per curry, then add to one largish ceramic pot (one for each different curry).  I then give each a good blast in the ding (microwave) for 3 minutes (900w) just before I set everything out.

I then set everything out on my table, including starters, pops, rice, salads and sides, and then it's every man/woman for themselves.

Ray :)
