non TA shop bought curry

Hi
Interesting point Haldi.
I remember being in Sainsburys in the past, a lady bought, six jars of sauce, six cans of tomota pure. 1

Last year my wife bought one of the Sainsbury's Cheapo BASIC range....Not recommended but way better than you'd think

Have just caught up with this thread. I too am not a great fan of supermarket curries and I can certainly produce a chicken curry for less than two quid. However sometimes, when I just can't be arsed cooking I might consider popping one f these in the micro. More likely however I'd get one of those bags of mixed pakora and heat them in the oven.

Fortunately I am happy to cook my own curries most nights. Today I have been asked to cook someone two Kormas with St Patrick's Day rice (green, white and gold of course!) and am getting paid for it. Whilst doing that I'll knock up a couple of other curries for our tea.

Yum.

ASDA or Tesco will have to be patient with me

Before I started my curry-making adventure, I would often eat Asda's Chicken Madras and separate tri-coloured pilau rice, from or packaged from the deli counter.  I found them very nice but have not had one since; only because I am committed to improving my own skills.

I've not tried making a curry with it
It would have to be a snowy day in March before I tried that!

Having had a brand new kitchen fitted https://curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,8431.0.html
a few months ago we didn't have anything really to cook on so these so-called curries were an option, Asda, Morrisons, M&S, Tesco and what a load of bland and in some cases disgusting curries. I have never tasted anything so tasteless, i can't understand how people can eat this crap.
I don't buy the ready meals because you never know what's in them, the amount of salt,sugar, fat and chemicals that go into these "meals" is just not for me.
I do like Morrisons Sweet Potato Samosas though...

Tried most of the supermarket ones.  They were all vile.  Remember having a "chicken vindaloo" form Tesco, or it could have been Sainsbury's.  Had a few little pickled onions in it.  Dreadful, dreadful vinders!

It is not only supermarket curries that use pickled onions where shallots or similar are required.  I have had more than one coq au vin where pickled onions have been used (not in France, of course).  Disgusting.
