Both look fantastic Rob and I very much like the sound of that rice

Nice work Rob.  Glad the gadget worked well for you.  Was it better than the paneer you can buy?  I too remember the days of cream at the top of the milk bottle    Been doing a bit of basic traditional indian cooking recently.  It's prompting a  few questions on how the traditional process transposes to BIR practices and the pitfall we sometimes have.  Food for thought 

Those pics are making me hungry Rob.  The penetration of that marinade (and colouring) is quite stark.  Often heard and use the adjective "jank", but not the Americanism "janky" 

Watching this at lunchtime was not a good idea 

Any chance of your recipe Rob?  I really am yearning for the taste of a decent reshmi kebab or two    I can then  show you my gadget for creating the egg net to wrap round it then.  Surprised at Din's comments on how they made these in the restaurant back in the day.  My experience of reshmi and shami at my local Bangladeshi restaurant back in the 80's was as per the traditional method and not simply using the same mix as for keema but making a round pate and frying it.  Maybe I was just spoilt.  Obviously, nowadays that is exactly what you're gonna get  due to cost and expedience
