Topic: Maliks Indian restaurant LIVE CAM!

[George]

BTW I tried recording the live cam, but I can't
The image gets distorted and unviewable
Has anyone else managed to get any more saved?

Somebody here kindly pointed me in the direction of WM Recorder. They offer a demo download which allows 5 mins of free recording. Otherwise you have to pay about 80 dollars for the software, and I'd sooner not do that! Anyway, 5 minute snatches seem adequate for the Maliks videos, if you start at the beginning of a single dish prep. There are also plenty of periods at Mailks where nothing is going on, or the system crashes momentarily. So I can just start a new 5 min recording during one of those peiods, without missing much at all.

If anyone knows a better free approach, please flag it up.

Hi,

Quite a few posts and threads about this but i will post here and hope
it gets read/moved...

The first two containers in the video are not coconut and sugar,
but Cocount and Almond powder.

I have seen the two sitting together before
in other BIR kitchens.

yes/no ?

That's interesting, I'll go with that. As I posted in the recordings thread, but thought one was sugar, so what do you think the clear bottled sauce is that's added and do you think it's cream added when he turns?. If we can work that out we almost have a BIR Korma recipe on our hands plus the video to go with it.

I still think it is coconut. Almond powder would look more yellow in colour imo.

The clear bottled liquid I assume is plain old vinegar - added for a little sweet & sour.

Mailks updated their home page today to read:

"as seen on bbc maliks Indian takeaway offering customers the chance to see their food being cooked online via a webcam in the kitchen. Coming soon the hottest curry in the world"

Did anyone see anything on the BBC?

Hmm after watching the BBC video I think they like the attention, how about contacting them about the interest around the world they are getting from us?

I have contacted them through their website. Maybe they'll be good enough to contribute - who knows?  :
