Tandoori and Tikka / Re: Chicken Tikka - better than the BIRs
« on: May 12, 2012, 03:30 PM »
I tried this recipe last week using chicken thighs and drumsticks - superb. Have just marinated 1600g of chicken breasts today  ;D

Will do Chris, I usually use wooden spoons anyway.

I realise I can get one cheaper Frank but I/we have some wedding present cash needing disposed of  ;D Do you think 7.6L is enough? What size is the one in your photo?

I'm considering buying this Raymond Blanc Stockpot 7.6L. What do you guys think, is this big enough for cooking CRO bases? Or would I be better buying a bigger Stockpot?

First attempt at a CRO curry, very tasty. I reduced the chillies to one Green Morroco Chilli from the Co-op and reduced the chilli powder to 1/2 a teaspoon and it was still hot enough for me. Jeez you must like your curries hot AST  :D Also omitted the amchoor as I did not have any. The photo shows two servings of this curry.

Made this base last night, thanks SnS - my first from this site. I reduced all ingredients by 50%.  Nice taste to it, the only concerns being that the oil did not separate and it only produced 1700ml - should I expect more? I wonder if the reason for oil not rising (after 45 mins of vigourous simmering) may have been due to the base still being too thick after blending? - I was only using a hand blender. Now going to try making AST's Chicken Jalfrezi using this base.

Bobby, is this the one at Corstorphine? If so I will try it next time I'm passing there.
