Have an epic man-flu now. Blast it. Normal service should be resumed shortly :)

This was some of the real deal Khyber pathia. Previously frozen and defrosted. Put some in a bowl for a quick supper. Noticed quite a lot of liquid coming out of it, so left it for a while. Syringed off before reheating. Clearly not oil. Pineapple juice/pulp. It was the same with the Balti chicken, albeit less obvious. The relatively light texture of the sauces is identical to Adil’s.

Think that is quite normal when you freeze and defrost stuff like curries. Just water ice crystals form quicker when freezing and also defrost first, thus leaving water around it. I always reheat frozen food like that in a pan, so you can mix it all back together easier and evaporate some of the water.
Looks really yummy anyway.
