punjabi bir gravy
« on: November 18, 2012, 07:46 PM »
I found this today and its bir gravy they use for all sorts of bir dishes, im going to give it a bash, i notice the use of curd for texture plus a whole host of things, looks good! and its cooked in a different way to the methods we are all trying or used too, this is not a finished dish from what i can gather from the reading. i have copied and pasted the recipe to a new folder just incase.

Excellent find Steve.  Funny you should come across this and post it just as i've finished a little experiment of my own connected to the white paste.  The whole spice inclusion also seems to becoming a must as well.  I'll publish a bit more on this once the forum is devoid of so much spam.  I will be very interested to hear the results once you have made the gravy and a couple of dishes from it ;)

Cheers guys i will keep you informed thats for sure, you know someones got to let the cat out of the bag one day if you know what i mean, but the contrast of the whole thing hopefully may cast some light on what we are looking for i dont know! its challenging but when you got a kitchen with a few chefs in it wouldnt take long to make the gravy. curryhell look forward to the updates and yes great shame about the spam,

Looks interesting. The Indian TA I gone to for many years has a redy orangey base. I used to think it was more food colouring than anything. I've tried using chaat masala but didn't give me this special tang. I now suspect it's something along the lines of this and quite complicated.

Looks interesting, Do you think it could be made without the white paste? (can't do nut's), I know that it won't taste the same, but would you still get the punjabi style gravy taste?

Just been and got a few bits to cook the punjabi gravy i posted any time now, i will let you all know the outcome, i think with the nuts les you would be ok as they have to be soaked for an hour and puree'd, unless you have an allergy to nuts?
