Starters and Side Dishes Chat / Puppodum Preach
« on: January 18, 2009, 07:49 PM »
For quick and easy puppodums with no mess put in microwave for 30 secconds or 2 for 50 secconds, avoid the microwave's hotspot by placing puppodums off centre.  Maybe not quite as nice tasting as frying but its quick, easy, less messy, and less fat!

Talk About Anything Other Than Curry / Re: Pizza from scratch

Cooking on a terracotta tile has 2 benefits.  The first is that the tile holds a lot of heat so when you put your pizza on it the temperature of the tile remains very high resulting in quick cooking time.  The second is that a terracotta tile gives your pizza a stone baked taste, which is a big plus.  Using the tile method allows you to cook the pizza quickly giving you a crispy base which is still soft and not dried out.  This is a way of mimicking the conditions of a stone bake oven.

I've never thought of trying Naan bread this way, I think I will give it a go.  I reackon It may reproduce the blistering effect on the naan bread.

If you are using a domestic oven, cooking your pizza on a terracotta tile with the oven on its hottest setting produces great results.

can somebody give me a link to the Bunjara recipe please.  And can somebody suggest a madras recipe that matches well to this base.

Nice base grave by the way.  I've not made a curry with it yet but last night I mixed some of this base with waitrose hot and spicy mango chutney, fresh chopped red and green chilli and fresh corriander, popadums on the side and it was good even just like that.

I need links now to bunjara recipe and the g/g paste recipe so I can crack on and make a Madras, or Jalfrezi (any recipe suggestions)

Just Joined? Introduce Yourself / Hello from sunny Spain

Hi everyone

I've joined this forum because I can't find anywhere near where I live in Spain that makes a good curry.  So I've decided to make curry myself! :D

I have been cooking for my family for many years and consider myself as a pretty good cook.  However, when it comes to curry I understand that because the sheer number, and ballance, of ingredients, the preperation and procedures involved, to become a half decent curry chef is not going to be easy.  But with the help of this websise and books and further research I am hoping to at least get very close to the perfect BIR curry.
