Hi Gav,

>I just got my pressure cooker last year and its fantastic for all things curry.

Not wanting to derail this thread but what curries do you make in the PC. Have you listed them anywhere with recipes.

Mine
CT's pre cooked Beef/Lamb
CT's 1 hour BASE
C2G Pilau Rice

Basically any traditional on the bone recipe of Youtube or my  books that I fancy, I just do in the PC.

Don't know whether this will help.
CT gave me this advice and I now use my pressure cooker to precook my lamb or beef.

Hi P360

A simple start would be to

brown off the portion of cubed Beef,
with oil,
onions,
2 Tej Patta,
2inch cinnamon,
5 cardamom pods.
Stir fry this in your pressure cooker for 5ish mins,
once it looks browned.
take a kettle and cover with boiling water (careful).

Pop the lid on and lock,
bring it up to pressure (high heat) then soon as its
up to pressure,
turn the heat down to low.
 Let it cook for 15mins then switch
it off and leave it to release the pressure naturally (about 10mins)

Have a look and it should be tender, if not put the heat on low and slightly
simmer and stew until its perfect. (lid off)

Tip: ? Use a timer, 15 to 18 mins is all you need under pressure.
overcooking makes Beef/Lamb tough and it looses its flavour into the stock.

cheers ChewyTikka

Quality. I used to have my mothers old one but it mysteriously disappeared. It'll have to be replaced.

So I'm now undecided

This one

or

Hand cut in my BIR Gav. ;)

Chipshop chippers cut them too thin and random (plus bits)
and they are a little bit more expensive ;D
