Title: CBM Little India Part 2
Post by: Curry Barking Mad on April 12, 2012, 10:50 PM: Hi All,
Another overview video from the kitchen of Little India.
Thanks again to Rob and his chefs.
And yes, the Lamb Shank is for one.
I have managed to embed this video elsewhere but for some reason I cannot embed it on here.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video from real restaurant chefs.
Just click on the link below.
Cheers,
Mick

Don't know how you pursuade them to let you film in their kitchen,I have a hard time asking questions and actually getting in these kitchens let alone filming.Mick what would be the chances of actually filming them making their gravy??? That would be superb.

Cheers JB,
Yes mate, sometimes the better halves just don't get it do they? :D

Persuading them isn't always easy but I use a simple process...
1 Show them respect and courtesy
2 Show a genuine interest in what they cook and how.
3 Buy quite a few takeaways over a period of time.
4 Always try and chat with the owner.
5 On a Monday as soon as they open try asking if you can see your curry being cooked. If it's a yes then take it from there.

I had over 3 hours in the kitchen on Monday and never paid a penny for the pleasure ;)

I am going in on Tuesday lunchtime and hopefully will see the chef prepare his base gravy from start to finish.

Cheers,
Mick

Thanks Natterjack,
The lamb shank was in the microwave on a low setting gently heating through for some time in it's pre-cooking sauce before going into the pan with the addition of other ingredients to make the final thick sauce.
My apologies for the poor picture quality.

It's pretty "full on" for a chef eh?

Surprised how long pans can be left bubbling away on high heat without things burning.

Thanks for posting Mick.

like the way the chef leaves the dish to cook with the curry spoon on top seems for ages
If that was me I would be in there with my spoon making a right mess
