They are located at 207 old chrsistchurch road , bournemouth, bh1 1jz (near litten tree)

Ive been visiting this restauratnt for nearly seven years now , theyre on their second chef in this time who is amazing. Ive been converted from the hottest dishes to ceylons by this chef alone. My wife and i visit every week without fail and the standard is very consistant.

They have started with a lot of fish dishes which arent for me but i hear these too are great and of course healthier.

The manager and staff are friendly but for me the mosty important part is the food ...10/10

Lets Talk Curry / another question by bjplayer.....cooking spices
« on: December 28, 2010, 07:27 PM »
thx for all the helpful replies.

hearing that a few of you have actually worked in indian restaurants theres something id like clearing up....(well plenty of things but lets start here :)

on the base i was shown it had some spices cooked in oil with puree and tin  tomatoes.. from what i had been told to get a dry powdered spice to flavour in cooking it must be fried (norm in onion and garlic) but def fried as opposed to any water tomato juice which would lead to them boiling..

whats the opinion of those that have seen it done?... the sauce i was given on here was highly rated but spices effectively boiled in tomato can sauce..

whats your opinions

Lets Talk Curry / Re: Curry Stocks....
« on: December 27, 2010, 04:42 PM »
hi guys, bjplayer again... ive given slightly the wrong idea and still managed to cause an argument it seems  ::).

i have cooked a few curries in the past and of course never as good as the shops , i did go thru a phase of morning , noon and nightly of trying to get it right before t'internet was born, in the end preferred the takeaway as it was so much better but believe there was no lack of effort.

as for the stock i was referring to , i didnt mean to imply there were no spices involved  just that the stock was seperate ie... you would start by frying spices in onion (normally very small amount of spices (maybe tsp)) in oil  then add  meat then ....... then the stock which is where it got confused which is just plain root veg boiled in water added. then finished with whatever coconut etc...

im assuming most recipes on here come from cross of books and like me trying to bend the ear of the local restaurant after few cobras? so suprised with these complicated graviy ideas was my point, just curios where they all come from , hope this clarifies...bjplayer

Lets Talk Curry / Curry Stocks....
« on: December 27, 2010, 02:37 PM »
hi guys,

ive read thru the site a bit and theres some great recipes, i chat a lot to the local muslim indians who work in numerous restaurants near me, im looking to make my own curry as we all are but when i read these complicated gravy recipes i find it a bit off putting, the guys i were talking to talk about making stocks from boiled root vegetables that are handy at times , not endless lists of spices mixed in with onions etc,,

maybe one of you can tell me the difference between these complexy gravys and the simple stocks i hear the local guys talk of to add to their meats..??

thx guys happy new year... bjplayer :D
