- The bhuna cooked by the head chef blew my socks off with the depth of flavour it had! Not hot, but spicey and gorgeous.

I'm really looking forward to the recipe for that - do you have it?  :P

We cooked our own dishes and then sat and ate them.We made a bhuna,vindaloo and I made a pathia,all using the gravy that we had made earlier.  I have to say they were all very nice indeed!!

Tell us about the bhuna, JB :  this is the one that many of us would love to be able to create.

Phil &SS I've just reviewed my footage from the day and I've captured most of the first bhuna the head chef cooked so I'll put it together and post tomorrow.

The other 'massala' sauce was indeed an uncooked tomato based sauce.Quite runny in texture,from memory the chef said it consisted of blended tomatoes,corriander and his home-made garam massala.

Green chillies also in the uncooked red masala sauce.

The whole spices he put into the base consisted of black and white cumin,ajowan seeds,fennel,black mustard and cloves.

So the two pictures at the start of the thread, one is the GM and the other is?

Both pictures are for the garam massala,can't give you quantities though as he didn't give us any.

I could be wrong but I thought the other plate was the spices they use in the base gravy.

The caveat being that it makes use of precooked chopped onions, precooked chunky onions and green peppers, red masala sauce and spiced oil, none of which we have the full recipes for.

We never said we'd be able to solve the mystery to the 70/80's bhuna in one go, now did we  SS?  Give us some time and we may just get there  ;) (providing we can get back into that kitchen of course  ;D )
