Topic: Curry, bhajis and naans

[SoberRat]

Hi,
I made a new batch of base again the weekend and made some dishes with 1 portion. First up a madras hot curry with chicken, onions, potatoes and peppers which I had with a mushroom bhaji and pilau rice. Today I knocked up some naan bread, chicken tikka and mini onion bhaji. I have to say the curry came out rather oily compared to my usual curries but it was very tasty indeed and it was large enough for two servings.







All the best

The oiliness (?oilyness?) looks absolutely perfect to me, Rob -- the ideal ratio of oil to base, IMHO.

Thanks Phil. I have been making my base without really measuring ingredients recently and also adding only turmeric and not any other spices. It's giving me some good results. The curry above had a little more oil added at the frying stage and I have to say it didn't do the flavour any harm and if anything gave it much more of that BIR flavour.

All the best

Rob
