Traditional Indian Recipes / Re: Spice Grinder (Bombay Bottle Masala)
« Last post by livo on March 02, 2025, 09:41 AM »
I found the concept and production of BBM intriguing. I made the best possible copy I could.  I very much enjoyed it and the dishes made using it. I gave a bottle to my dad and when it was all gone, never revisited.

Lets Talk Curry / Dishoom Dhal Makhani
« Last post by tempest63 on March 02, 2025, 01:36 AM »
I cooked the Dishoom Dhal Makhani tonight, but instead of bubbling for hours on the stove I made it in the slow cooker.
The wife had a generous portion poured over a jacket potato with some petit pois to accompany.
I’m currently on an elemental diet, doctors orders, so could only watch with envy as she savoured every mouthful whilst I drank my prescription “milk shake”.

I stumbled across references to bottle masala very recently in the Essential Marathi Cookbook and that piqued my interest. I found a number of recipes online that use it and so I went looking for a supply here in the UK.
I found that Ome Made https://omemade.co.uk/ sell it, I bought a packet, and am just waiting on an opportunity to try it out.

Lets Talk Curry / Re: The Elusive Shami Kebab

Mmm, i'm liking the look of that Rob.  Do post the recipe.  I have just the tool to produce an egg nest to wrap the shami in  :clown2:.

Look forward to seeing your gadget CH. I am typing up the recipe now. It was fun reading this thread again. Where has the time gone? Chef Din has a video on the pate style Shami, but with beef. Worth a watch. Interesting how he feels we are unlikely to have come across one done this way in a BIR. Pretty much all I can remember from my Manchester days. The spicing for my Shami is somewhat different though.  Demographics again I suppose.

On Shami/Reshmi kebabs found the menu of an early TA I remember. They are still going in the same place.  May have been taken over several times by now, but perhaps still the same Pakistani family running it.  Like many they have branched out and do pizza, SFC, burgers etc., but parts of the menu remind me of times gone by, with several high quality Northern touches.

In the Appetisers section you will see both Shami and Reshmi kebabs (the latter with egg).  Reds onions on the menu too, as are chips with red salt.

Off topic but merit worthy.

Special offers. The Monster kebab. The biggest kebab in Stockport.

Kids menu.  Korma and chips.

House specialities/Chef's recommendation. Extensive balti and karahi selection. Cherry picks of popular Bangladeshi dishes.  A notable Mr Naga section. So not the usual chef's description. For example, Chef's special Naga spices. It's Mr Naga himself!  I like this.

More cherry picking.  On the Desserts menu there are Banana fritters/Pineapple fritters. Brilliant idea!

Pictures of Your Curries / Lamb curry

No mutton at my local butchers recently so having to make do with lamb.




Lamb pre-cook




Lamb curry







Ultra lush. Old school BIR taste and quality, me thinks. Depth of flavour, aromatics, salt, balance. Would be even better with mutton though.

I have a few feral rats for exactly the same purpose !  (One of which was caught by little Squeaker last night, but I was able to capture it and release it outside, albeit a little the worse for wear ...).

His finished dish photo (below) perhaps lacks a little something, I can't put my finger on it ...

A pitta bread, perhaps ?!

 :smile2: I am going to give the Iceland stuff a go again Phil. By itself. I have a bag of Oyster & Spring onion sauce though, just in case.
