British Indian Restaurant Recipe Requests / Kachi Chops
« on: September 13, 2013, 12:43 PM »
A friend who commutes between SOT and Exeter on a regular basis often eats in the Spice Exchange, Milton. After his first visit he informed me of a starter that he'd had - Kachi Chops. Never seen them on the menu anywhere down here and am eager to source a recipe and try them out for myself - just as he is also eager to have them at home as opposed to driving a few hundred miles!

Any help would be much appreciated

Welcome to the forum mrdavie. Hope you find it as useful as I have.

If your spice packs don't include all of the spices mentioned here there are two very good Asian supermarkets near the Exeter City ground.

Co-incidentally the lad at work who does the samosa run every month its his father in law that owns one of those shops...

Can you recommend any good Indian restaurants in Exeter?

The best 2 IMO would be Real India and Curry Leaf

All the best and good luck with your curries.

33 year old Curry fanatic hailing from Exeter.

I work as a postman, if any of you yourselves do you'll know just how many indians work with us. For those that don't work as posties the amount of indians working within royal mail is actually quite surprising!

I am surrounded daily by curries - some of the things these guys bring in that their wives make for them at home are amazing, I've said to them numerous times that I've paid good money in restaurants and been served food that doesn't stand anywhere near to what they are bringing in. We have one guy who has a relative that owns a curry house in Birmingham. Once a month he shoots up the motorway on a "Samosa run" - when he returns I have a box filled with 75 fresh samosas that get bagged up and frozen. Nothing beats a cup of tea and a couple of samosas  ;)

What brings me here?

Well, one of the lads has just come back from a holiday at home and has brought me back plenty of spice packs so I'm going to start making my own..

How do I like my curry?

Medium/Mild. I'm not a fan of uber hot - I like to be able to taste and savour every little bit of flavour in there - with the roof of my mouth, tongue and stomach lining intact!
