Hi,  still on the case bitchinsahsa, hopfull of having an answer by the weekend but can`t promise. I have had so many books from different libraries that its hard to pinpoint which one it was.If its there I will find it.......regards mike..  ;D

Hi Mike,

Thanks for looking, I appreciate it.  I feel like this is the curry that I am just not going to be able to find a recipe for 

I think I may have to go to my local Indian Restaurant and see if they will show me how to make it, although don't know if they would?

Hi Secret Santa,

Thanks for that, I will need to give it a go. 

Still don't think it is quite the curry though as the one I am looking for is brown in colour with lots of sliced garlic and quartered chilli's in it.  It also needs something more than the chilli and garlic if added to a basic curry but I just don't know what it is!

this dish sounds very similar to the one i'm trying to find (see post "Sylheti Recipe - anyone got a good one?".

the sylheti does not have the 1/4 chillies in but everything else is the same - brown colour with plenty of sliced garlic that has been fried. i know that the sylheti is based on a bhuna but i'm stuck on as to what else is in it.

hope this helps anyhow.

Hi

I got this recipe from a Keralan member of one of my forums - dunno if it's right though   the guy's a vegan lol
