Topic: Leftovers

[fried]

Just posting this for posterity.

The missus is on some new kind of fad diet, so I'm just cooking single potions. Big single portions. This has meant changing the way I cook a bit as the usual pan is too wide and the sauce evaporates too quickly. Using an idea from someone here I cooked this in a normal saucepan, meaning I could go to town with my metal chefs' spoon.

I went back to basics, a Madras - CT's base, CA's mix and Zaal GM and used a basic version of CT's recipe. Just G/G paste, tom puree, mix, kashmiri chilli, methi, Worcestershire sauce and a dash of lemon. The chicken was cooked from raw.

I've been really happy with the majority of my curries recently but this was absolutely the best yet. Real depth of taste that lasted in the mouth like a fine wine.

Splendid!

To my mind that looks the perfect colour and consistency for a Madras. (And I've yet to find a better Madras recipe than CT's. Those ingredients listed may seem simple, but that's all you need - and simple so often yields the best results.)

Now that is making me moist Fried  ;D.  Again, little is more in terms of the simplicity and number of the ingredients providing a good tasty dish.  Looking forward to H4ppy Chris's South Indian Garlic Chicken which i'm just off to prepare now. By the way, try reducing your pics to 600x400 using paint or any picture application before using the image host.  Then we get to see the porn in all its glory.  Currently we only get 3/4 of it

Done, sir!

Good to get back to basics after a lot of experiments with finely chopped onions, green chillis, red chillis, onion paste etc.

I also cooked a CT madras last night - love the simplicity and authentic BIR taste of that recipe!

Now the dog can definitely see the rabbit   I hope my dish tonight tastes as good as the leftovers look
