Mike

Just to say in open forum - THANKS for the advice on the pressure cooker.

To the other members why this post - out here in Thailand a pressure cooker is like rocking horse sh#t well i managed after a long load of hassle to get hold of 2  a 6 litre and a 10 litre.

Having never flown one before and as usual out here they came with no destructions or recipe book and i asked Chewy for some advice. He being the man i had seen demonstrate pressure cooking. AWESOME... to say the least. Commercial for us out here there is no use for them - the price of lamb is ridiculous and to make several lamb curries for the supermarkets would be pointless, ie the punters wouldnt pay the price.

However from a personal view lamb cooked in a pressure cooker is melt in the mouth - also other stuff like chilli con carne, just so simple with outstanding results.

I'm hooked, i reckon the lamb karahi done in the pressure cooker would take about 20 mins tops from scratch and will be great. Might even be less time but im talking about NOT pre cooking the lamb.

I will be trying it probably towards the weekend after we clear our orders. Will post the results.

Once again many thanks Mike im hooked, thanks

best, Rich

When I (eventually) acquire a pressure cooker, this is the kahari method I'm going to try:

Mutton Karahi by Fazal E Haq

In fact, it will be the FIRST thing I try in my soon to be acquired pressure cooker!

Look forward to hearing the results Rich.  CT is definitely King of the pressure cookers  ;D  As for the lamb korahi, it was doing great until he added the yoghurt, then i lost interest. My experience of curries with it added are not favourable? How would you cope with those pans SD?  They don't look like they've seen a buffing since they left the factory Wouldn't mind  a bit of that range in my kitchen though :  Maybe i need to rescue the pressure cooker from my dad's and give it an outing.  Trouble is, i haven't got a license either to drive it

Great video SD ( Pakistani Powder always something secret  )
When cooking for afew I always use chewys rice method in the pressure cooker
and the base to save time
cant resist a gadget that helps

They tend to over do the yogurt sometimes but if you make it as a soured milk version and add it - it tends to cook in very nicely indeed and you get a nice creamier effect in your sauce

As far as I know, 'Pakistani Powder' is nothing more than this: http://www.spicesofindia.co.uk/acatalog/Al-Noor-Pakastani-Bassar-Curry-Masala.html
