Lovely winter warmers Rob. Nice.  Fancy some proper northern Cumberland sausages right now.
I tried doing our outdoor grill in winter last year and it was so cold the propane gas turned to liquid. Need to wait till the Chicago winter has passed or just make use of air fryer. 😊

Me neither.  I use iPad and even when I reduce image size right down, doesn’t work any more.  Site not very good these days.

The texture in those pics looks just perfect. Looks like you did a great job as per usual.
I just used my last portion of Rik’s vindaloo paste so eager to try something new.  That old school vid of Latif’s Inspired (excellent share @livo) will have me adding chicken to the base gravy for sure. Instant Pot, of course.

Happy New Year everyone. I watched this just this morning. Makes me wonder if that adding a chicken to the base gravy is the missing link back to curry of old? No recipes I see do that and would seem possibly an easy cost saving to just not include? Well I know what I’m doing with my next batch.

Agreed about the FDA here. They ban ‘proper’ haggis as it contains sheeps lungs but allow packagung of meat with carbon monoxide to keep it looking red. I think there are quite a number of things in food here that are banned elsewhere. Too old to worry now though but man would I love a real haggis this winter….

Lets Talk Curry / Air Fryer anyone?
« on: November 30, 2024, 03:59 PM »
Hey all, good to see the site back up.  Pics won’t upload for me for some reason, even though the file size is less than 500k.  You’ll just have to imagine the beautiful lamb kebabs from the Dishoom book and accompanying kali mirch potatoes courtesy of my newest YouTube addiction, chef Ranveer Brar.  Really like his cooking channel.  Pav Bhaji will be next - my favorite lunch in Mumbai.

Anyone have experience with the air fryer? I just got myself one, having seen a ton of recipes / uses. Bought a little rack with skewers to do kebabs, chicken tikka, pakora, etc. Chicago winter temperatures ( just 11 deg F this morning) don’t favor my outdoor grill, so this gadget will keep me going.

Your curry pics always look spot on. I made paneer from scratch last week - found some A2 milk at local supermarket. Turned out lovely and soft but when I made palak paneer with it, it was a bit on the soft side. I took pics but the upload thing wouldn’t work again so you’ll have to take my word for it.  Rik’s vindaloo tomorrow methinks and hopefully the upload thing will work.

I made #3 of Rik’s vindaloo last night. This experiment used stripped rotisserie chicken instead of raw and was nowhere near as good.  Still a decent curry though.
Next experiment marinating chicken in the vindaloo paste then cooking final dish.
This morning I made keema pav/ pau from the Dishoom book and with a Herculean show of restraint, didn’t polish it off but stuck in fridge overnight to make keema puffs tomorrow.
Indian ground lamb pasties in puff pastry - delicious.
Pics to follow.

Anaemic peas I can forgive. Chips with Indian curry though I cannot! 😂
