Tonight's effort and a request from the missus as its her favourite, was Chicken Ceylon. Using CA's base and recipe, I made a double amount and instead of using all coconut powder, I used half powder and used some creamed coconut (about an inch of block). Verdict, the best I've done yet and was as good as a TA one. I made Pilau rice but put a tad too much ghee in which means it should be perfect next time. Anyway here's the photo. Looking at the colours it should look a little darker.

Well done Gav! My first attempt making a ceylon, was with taz base and using stephen lindsays' recipe. I was absolutely ecstatic. That one does indeed make me hungry.

This is a favourite with my lot.

Being married for quite a few years now, I've sat many a time in a restaurant whilst the missus is reading the menu like its the latest thriller and sending the waiter away because she hasn't decided. Eventually he comes back and its Mixed Kebab and Chicken Ceylon yet again.  :-\

There is something about women and coconut curries.  ;)

Gav that looks virtually identical to my Ceylon. I actually made one last night, it's a staple I keep coming back to.

Wife's away so I made my current favourite, Chicken Jafflong http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,8676.0.html Had it with a shop nan and also a couple of poppadoms done in the microwave. The rice was a batch I had in the freezer. I did add some red pepper along with the green pepper stated.
