Good curry recipe, made it coz my Mrs has just discovered Bhuna and it's her new favourite!

Thanks CA, just cooking another one as I write this  ;D

Vindaloo / Re: 99.9% Vindaloo/Tindaloo Clone (revised)
« on: April 20, 2012, 09:37 PM »
I made this curry tonight and my lack of faith was disturbing whilst I cooked it. It was very thin and I was sure this was not the Vindaloo I was looking for.

So I added some more oil, turned the burners up and let it reduce on high heat to that nice thick BIR consistency.

The result was a cracking Vindaloo that even a Dark Lord of the Sith would be proud of.

Cheers Darth, I'll be making this again  :)

Nice tip, I didn't know they did it like that.  I'll have to see if I can fit one in my micro with the amount of rice I need

Now this looks like my kind of curry, I love mine to be hotter than the surface of the Sun   ;D

It looks like you're using Bird's Eye chillies, have you ever tried Scotch Bonnets in this curry? I think I'll use Scotch Bonnets to give the curry some extra kick and that fantastic Bonnet flavour.

This looks great, I've already made up the base sauce to Darth's spec and will hopefully be able to make the finished curry this weekend.

Yeah I used to microwave mine too, but I like the taste of a bit if ghee in the rice. Plus unfortunatley my micro won't scale up  to more than a few portions.

I think I'll experiment with some rice in a foil take-away container and see how it turns out  :)

Trainee Chefs / Beginners Questions / Bulk re-heating frozen rice
« on: April 18, 2012, 03:51 PM »
I always use CA's excellent rice recipe from HERE and freeze it in left over take away cartons to make a decent portion size. Normally to reheat it, I just stir-fry it in a pan with some ghee but soon I need to reheat more than I can fit in the pan.

Any tips? I was going to add a bit of water and put it in the oven but am worried it may dry out too much!

Cheers

Vindaloo / Re: CA's Chicken Vindaloo

I made this recipe last night and ate half of it right away and froze the rest.

It was very nice right after I made it, but I think I agree with some of the earlier posters in that I was probably overwhelmed with the spices during the cooking of it. I think I lost some of 'the taste' when I ate it last night.

I've just finished the rest of it now and wow what a difference! I microwaved it whilst frying some of Cory's pilau rice in the pan and I really enjoyed it. So for me, the secret will be to cook it then eat it the following day (if I can restrain myself).

Thanks for another cracking recipe Cory, definitely a keeper :)
