hi guys /gls
on tonights show it featured chicken tikka masala and even though it was a home cooked version it beat the cajun chicken tower with a resounding 3 judges loving the dish. the chicken was not cooked then added to the sauce, once the onion g&g chilli powder and cummin seeds and 4tbsp of tomato puree had been cooked for a couple of minutes the chicken with marinade was added to the pan cooked for 10-15 mins add the double cream garnish with coriander. watch friday nights show at 5pm on itv for the results to see if it goes through or you can watch it online and get the recipe at itv.com/bestdish

regards gary

very suprised that the judges didnt pick up that re: the chicken - still what does Ed Baines know about anything

Never mind the CTM I was drooling over that sticky toffey pud mmmmmmmmm

It's the midlands this week on "Britain's best dish" and I hope and expect a balti to feature this week, after all - no matter what the yorky puds from bradford say, the balti is a brummie invention

Kev.

As I suspected you can only watch these if you are in Britain. 

There's another MUST-SEE prog on TV this evening - Heston B (top chef) 'In search of perfection' when he turns his attention to CTM. BBC2 Tues 16th Oct 20:30

Further details:

It says he starts his investigation at his local curry house in Crookham. I think I've been to that place. It's very good. Heston also attempts to build his own DIY tandoor like I meant to do this summer but didn't find the time...maybe next year.

Good find George, this is a must see for me...any behind the scenes footage of a local curry house is a must watch.
