Blades tikka as a starter with Dip's mint sauce, CA's dhansak ( CA's base and masala ) , CA's pilau rice , and for the girls Dip's chicken tikka biriani ... all with home done chapatis.

I'm yet to discover a reasonable BIR dessert ( usually majorly ming ) ... any ideas from you clever people ?

Hi Colin,

A pistachio kulfi is a superb desert IMO.
It is a type of Indian ice cream.

Usually served as a green upside down cone-shaped thing, a bit like a volcano to look at.

There are plenty of recipes out there but I suspect the BIRs buy them ready made.

Cheers,

Paul

I cooked up a big batch of Chewys base this morning then made:

- Chicken Korma (CA)
- Chicken Tikka Masala (Dipuraja's version)
- Lamb Bhuna (CA)
- Chicken Tikka Balti (C2go)
- Lamb dhansak (own)
- Chicken Ceylon (CA)
- Lamb Jalfrezi (Chewy)
- Chicken madras (Chewy)
- Saag gosht (own)
- mushroom bhaji
- Chicken Vindaloo (CA's special recipe marinaded overnight in chillies and spices)

12 blokes round for a poker night tomorrow. Curries are marinating away in the fridge in foil containers. Should taste better tomorrow than they did today. 

Froze enough base for 14 more curries...happy days!!

CA's Chicken Ceylon (using some turkey thigh thats in the fridge cooked see pic), Blades tikka for Garlic Chilli Chicken, CA's Pilau rice, and Dips mint sauce

I rememeber back in Rusholme, Manchester back in the early 90's before we emigrated, there were a few shops that specialised in deserts. They had these wonderfully colourful window displays. Every "cake" looked absolutely gorgeous, but tasted..............well, let's say they tasted nothing like they looked.

I remember a horrible oily, dessicated coconut with a hint of cardamom taste. When you're expecting a chocolate lamington taste it came as a real shock. 

I'll stick to tandoori and curry!
