This is a great link and I look forward to trying this and some of the other recipes on that web page.
BUT I very much doubt if this is a "Restaurant Style Indian Curry Recipe", not least because who would wait 30 mins ++ for this dish to be prepared. They'd need to use the base sauce approach. So the chef isn't giving much away. He probably took it from a book. It might be a great "authentic" recipe, though, and probably all the better for it.

Hi Gary,
Thanks if worked this time for me. There looks to be some good recipes on this site. Thankyou

hi cq
from what i can make out it would be on the specialities as are many others that they would. i know that this recipe or chicken korai appears on the menu from Rajver my local. i would presume that they use precooked chicken in this recipe. but even so if your order was taken for the starter and main courses then they would have plenty of time to cook. so it maybe true that some places also precook there chicken tikka in advance? but when you come to think about it they use a tandoor to cook their chicken tikka so cooking would actually be quicker.

ps glad the link worked this time as you can see there are lots of recipes which you would find mainly in restaurants.

Could we be confusing the words 'recipe' and 'dish' here'? I'm sure that dishes with these titles are likely to appear on many restaurant menus. The actual recipes used behind the scenes in the kitchen seem likely to be a different matter.

Hi all, This recipe is great, you should try it. The marinaded chicken is very nice. The spice mix used for the tomatoe paste is impressive. It reminded me of a taste i notice in real BIR dishes. I think this spice mix could be the real thing. Overall i give the recipe 9 out of 10. I will cook this again very soon, lovely jubbly ! DD

I have tried the shashlick and makhani from this site - both produce good results and are very edible. However I would say that they are nouveau cuisine recipes not utilising base sauce. The result is however good with nice fresh tasting flavours a modern take on a bir dish.

Yep, one of the best in the area. Mind you the Bilash around the corner from it went downhill for a while but a couple of weeks ago I had one of the best curries I've ever had.
