Oddly enough I have just today ordered a four-pound McSweeen's haggis from a butcher in Wadebridge (Cornwall).

More Shan packets to trial out. £0.99 each.The Karachi Beef contains dried plums (with pits). OK. The shop also had Laziza Lahori Charga, but well over twice the price of Shan.

The chutney is lovely. Haven't tried the pickle yet. £1.49 each.

Arrived yesterday. Just got the side plates for now, to look them over. Matte green. First impression, rather nice. Will get a full set. Glossy curry on matte. Good idea?

Paneer press gadget. The colour matches nicely with my kitchen knives and base gravy containers.

The green raisins (out of date) were 20 p. These are for a walnut paneer sandwich filling. The other things are for biryani. No luck sourcing some nice clay pots yet though. A local shop does them, but everyone they had was badly chipped, really not-fit-for-sale badly chipped. Saw some that would be ideal on Amazon, but just shy of 60 quid, each.

The pistachios were expensive, but will probably work out cheaper in the end. When taking the shells off I just eat then straight away. Can't help it.
