Topic: chicken tikka shatkora

[goncalo]

Made a pot of base sauce (c2g 3litre version) but it didn't came out exactly well. The main reason being that the base was on the pressure cooker for over 1h10 and I still didn't get the "smell" as per Julian. I think that I might try it again another time, but if I am hoping for a trusty base, then taz will be the choice, or even darthphall, but there is still a lot to try (CA's, chewytikka, C46, KD1, dipuraja's and certainly the list goes on.)

I finished the last laddle trying the bombay potatoes (pre-cooked with CBM's tips) and one of my favorites: chicken tikka shatkora.



The result wasn't anywhere near my reference curries, but I wouldn't complain if I'd get this from a TA. Sorry for the usua awkward picture, but I always remember the shot a bit too late.  The potatoes were not very well cooked, sadly. I also think I need to master the art of seasoning with salt, as I always put too little or too much. This time it was too little.

I followed Rob's previous post. He used this shatkora recipe from cook 4 one. I made their spice mix and used c2g 3litre base.

gargomes,

many thanks for link which i must have missed. i've had curry in restaurant once having a taste that i'd not come across before (Achmal identified as Shatkora). had it on my mind to try the dish out for some time - i intend to use the jar stuff and see how it goes basing around same recipe.

best wishes

Cool!  What jar stuff?

I got myself a package of frozen shatkora,  IBCO branded (IIRC, the same as Rob) but that is because the asian shops don't carry fresh as they say it it aways goes off because rarely anyone buys it :-)

will post pic once i've purchased - i've only seen it and not taken that much notice - i hope it's a chutney not a pickle - the chilli pickle i just tried was no good but the chutney lovely.
