British Indian Restaurant Recipe Requests / Re: Cox's Bazaar Prawn
« on: September 02, 2011, 10:40 AM »
To Abdul,  Bangladesh, yes!

The colour is slightly similar to a Dhansak and sometimes it looks as though it has lentils in it as well.  It also certainly has Methi, as you can see flecks of it.  It is a thick sauce, doesn't appear to have onions, and is very hot.  It has a slightly bitter and yet also sweetish after-taste.

British Indian Restaurant Recipe Requests / Cox's Bazaar Prawn
« on: August 13, 2011, 09:22 AM »
Has anyone else ever seen this dish?  It's served at the Balti King in Totnes and it's great.  I thought it was just something they have made up, but recently on holiday in Mevagissey another restaurant there also had it on the menu.  I know it is named after a famous beach in India, but would like to see if anyone has clues on the ingredients

Cheers Ray,

I'll check that out.  Should not be a problem as I live in the Midlands and there are plenty of very good Asian supermarket close by.  Thanks

For reference.  I tried to emulate again the other day and made a booooooooo-t-ful curry.
I used some meat balls made in a sheek style, prawns were too expensive.  Taste was close and had the right amount of heat, but still not there yet!  See

You are all probably on the right track.  The curry house in question does not have a web site.  When asked what was in it, apart from very big prawns that is, all I was told was "a mix of spices".  The reference to Basaar may well be right.  Does anyone have the definitive ingredients in this mix and the proportions?

A curry house in Totnes, South Devon, make a dish called Cox's Bazaar Prawn.  I understand that Cox's Bazaar is an actual beach location in Bangladesh, but has anyone ever seen this on another menu?  It has an amazing taste.  I tried to deconstruct it and came close, it is a sort of mix between Dhansak and Passanda, but with what I am sure if a hefty does of Methi.  Any clues?????

Madras / Re: THE MADRAS 100% CLONE (OF MY LOCAL BIR).
« on: July 18, 2007, 09:21 PM »
Tried this today and made a fairly large batch. Put together a very pleasing BIR standard Chicken Rogan and a Jalfrezi from it. A good simple recipe and works well for others than Madras.  Spent a lot of time probably cutting onion etc too small pieces, but result was excellent.
