Pakora
« on: November 25, 2007, 09:43 AM »
Now that I am cooking in my garage, I can make as many garlicky,spicy & deep fried things as I like
And I don't get any complaints!!!!
No more " you've made my coat smell" or having to leave the kitchen window open at night
You should see some of the flambeeing I have done too!!
I reckon some flames were about two foot high
You get it best when you add the tomato paste or garlic ginger puree to the hot oil.
Incidentally, I somehow managed to singe my eyebrows the other day
So care is definitely required (can you buy eyebrow toupes?)
I cooked a few sauces yesterday then went on to make some pakora
I served them hot and fresh and they were absolutely gorgeous!!
Where would we be without onions?

Hi Haldi,

I'm picturing a complete BIR setup in your garage, any chance of some pics of that    8)

Pakora's look great!

Hi CK
     I'm afraid it's just the cooker in the garage
I have tiled round it though!!
I've put a small work surface to the right of it too
When I eventually move, people will really wonder what happened here!
It will be a bit like the Stonehenge mystery

Hi Haldi

They look great and good enough to eat!  All you need to do now is put a sign outside and you'll have loads of punters queing outside your garage.  CQ

Where do you keep your tandoor Haldi?

Perhaps you should start a drive-in?  Drive-in....garage...never mind  ;D

I have a storm porch at the front of my house
It's enclosed with double glazing
This is where the tandoor resides
Draped in coats and waiting for ignition!!

Now that's what I call a happy compromise!  A tandoor doubling up as a coat rack!  ;D

You don't fire it up in your storm porch do you??  :o

Is it charcoal or gas fired?

Is it on wheels?  Doesn't it crack if you move it?  :-\
