Best curry ever

[chriswg]

I decided to go crazy last weekend and order something other than a Madras or Vindaloo. What I ended up with was an absolutely stunning curry, better than anything I've ever tasted, but also sadly impossible to try and reproduce. The menu said:

20. Golden Triangle Special
Boneless whole pieces of grilled spirng chicken marinade in yoghurt and spices, stuffed with spiced mince meat, and cooked with chunks of onion and green bell-pepper.

I asked them to spice it up a bit as it came mild. The sauce was similar and yet very different to a Madras despite being about the same heat. It was slightly thicker and had more texture to it. The chicken was magnificent, the spiced meat stuffing was amazing. I expected a bit of keema meat stuck in there but I was happily mistaken. This stuff was amazing. At ?12 just for the dish I wont be ordering it every weekend but for a special occasion it will be hard to beat.

THAT BIR must be worth a pilrimage; where was it?

It's in Fleet in Hampshire and yes it is worth a pilgrimage. There is a good write up about the head chef on the website too. The kitchen is all open plan with a big viewing area but as I've only ever eaten there in big groups I don't feel like I could have stood there watching them cook. Next takeaway however...

This dish sounds good but I'm a bit concerned at the word 'impossible' creeping into more frequent usage at this forum. It might be a challenge to obtain the above recipe or work it out but it's hardly impossible. Far from it. Previously, JerryM had said it's "pretty much impossible to recreate (doner kebabs) at home" (Chat - donner kebabs thread, post #9)

Don't give up, guys!
