Topic: Chicken Tikka Pathia - Curried Away Style

[Aussie Mick]

Antone who can call Bernard Manning a racist doesn't know what they are talking about. I went to school with Bernards nephew and went to Bernards house many times as a kid. I went to his club in Harpurhey regularly as an adult. He was a great man, did much charity work (which he didn't like to publicise). His neighbour was Indian, and they got on really well, as the neighbour also had a sense of humour.

Bernad was a COMEDIAN. He was NOT racist.

Can't comment on jim davidson. Never met the man.

I really don't think you should have posted this video here, it won't be appreciated. This forum has already lost C2GO, CBM, and h4ppy-chris is getting unnecessary grief.

You're wrong. It's clearly appreciated by many on this forum, as you'll see if you read back through the comments. It's just that I'm not one of them because I've seen it all before.

I rest my case  :

I wish Adey all the best for his business.

Pointless seems a bit harsh
For me it was his version on the Pathia
cant remember the name of the sugar that was new to me and not so new butter ghee at the end
In my eyes a different version 

[BIR-TY]

the sugar is jaggery goor, its available in different forms, like the sukkar or in moulded blocks

Which, unless you're completely new to this forum and BIR cooking in general, is just a regurgitation of recipes and methods you'll find on this forum (and others). I suppose I just don't get why people who know all this stuff seem to go into raptures when the same old stuff (for George's benefit!) is shown over and over again.

My guess is that, even if the Pathia video is similar to other videos, it's very clear and well produced; one of the best videos of that kind. Moreover, if nearly all chefs are using a similar approach then, as long as it tastes good, that probably tells us something. The only trouble is, we don't know if that Pathia or any of the dishes which CBM films, for example, taste anything special at all. I hear people tasting recipes on the radio, you see them on the TV and elsewhere. It's 99% gushing praise. I somehow doubt it's honest but it wouldn't make a good video and would be embarrassing for the taster to say a dish was a bit bland or suchlike.

On top of that, the people that are pronouncing it in the videos are changing how they say it because its unnatural and odd for them to say "grey-bee", which is how an Indian would pronounce Gravy.

Which is exactly how this ridiculous term came about, i.e. the bastardisation of the word gravy.

Apart from anything else, it isn't a gravy at all as it contains no meat juices. It's a base sauce or just a sauce and I wish people would stop using the garabi term.

And what's this about racism - do explain because I can't fathom where you're coming from (actually, as I typed that I think I realised what you mean. Are you implying that by using the word garabi it's as if we're mimicking a first generation Pakistani's mangling of the English language in a derogatory way? If so even more reason to stop using the laughably, ridiculous term).
