Topic: SPRING ONIONS !!!

[DARTHPHALL]

Just wanted to ask do any of the take-away`s that forum members frequent put spring onions in their Vindalloo/Tindalloo ?
 as my favorite one does,and yes so do i.How much ? it looks like if you cut the Green leaves off 1 spring onion & chopped into 5mm (approx..)
 pieces , that is how much in 1 take-away size portion, ( you know the trays the size of a DVD case).

Not that I know of (haven't seen any in the 2 kitchens I have been in), I'm surprised at this, presumably its quite a high cost ingredient compared to a normal onion

There are chopped spring onions in their Vindalloo & Tindalloo & its nice to think that my local is putting some good quality ingredients in the curries.
 I must admit the take-away i go to 99.9% of the time makes a bloody good curry & none within 100 miles can touch them (in 4 years i`ve only had 2 mediocre curries from them !!).I shall continue to put Spring Onion & Coriander in to garnish  .

Hi ,Darthphall
Spring onion and coriander are very nice, i will put them in my curry next time and try .
I know the Chinese restaurants use spring onions a lot in every thing. Honestly i never saw them in a curry , but i will try anyway they are nice edition to any thing that got meat in it.
Thanks for the idea

Just 1 spring onion per portion ,  i think its just for aesthetics & garnish rather than anything else.
