Thanks for that commis are they open to the public?

I've also been told about a shop 'up Hanley duck' (local joke) somewhere near sun street i think!

Are you from chippy land commis?

Hi

Canicant, JerryM went there on his last visit, I use them also but always end up in Al-Mur, better butcher. Yes I'm local born and bread, live in Hartshill (on the border) from the "Borough". Yes I agree a section for stores would be an excellent addition I'm in the process of doing one for Stoke but so many stores. Also I'm hearing tales so will have to qualify things but I think the first rule is going to be CASH only.

Regards

It's good to know that cr0 is supported by a fellow potter 

Although I don't live in Stoke now  (i'm 18 miles away) my Dad was born in Trent Vale and one of my Sons now lives in Newcastle road, so i know the area well.

Hi

Canicant, know Trent Vale well, I was born there and lived there till 12. I'm a little sceptical of Balti cooked with too much paste as being a Stokie we've had these since before the craze.

Hi
Canicant, don't wish to go too far off topic. Think it may be best to PM, but know that other members are happy to see open chat, as it gives the form depth and value. By the way are you an upper or a downer?
Regards

canicant,

i don't recall seeing the kebab paste but this place is one of the best i've visited. i don't think the pasco brand has travelled that far yet.

I made this tonight for the first time,  I used hot oil though

Superb

I used CA's base as I made a batch the other day & the IG spice mix but both are similar so they wont make much difference to the final dish and Blades Tikka.  I did peterandjen's rice for 8, it worked just as good as for 2 people.  IG's Bhajis again were superb but I added a bout a 1/4 of a tsp more spices than the recipe suggests and for me it works ;D

cheers

Hi Willy,

At the risk of pointing out the obvious..You used CA's Base, IG spice, and Blades Tikka.  So, It's not really Dipuraja's Chicken Tikka Balti then, is it? lol

Oh, and you used hot oil.

That combo couldn't be further from the Dipster's if you tried, lol

I'm glad that you got a great final dish at the end of it all though

P.S, having just read that back, I do sound a bit condescending, didn't mean to
