Roshney Chicken Recipe

[chriswg]

Hi George, I'm certain the curry will be fine but the main problem you face is not having any poppadums left by the time you get home. I'm only a 2 min drive away and I get through at least 1.5 while driving

i'm only laughing so much as I do the same thing.

Make sure the Bhaji's are at the bottom of the bag!

Nah : if I were wanting to show off, I'd have written Royal  Tunbridge Wells  ;D
(And I'd also have written "at Signor Franco's", which would have been a complete lie !)

Maybe take a thick-walled lidded expanded polystyrene box with you and place the containers inside, George; that should retain almost all of the heat over a 30 minute journey and avoid any degradation of flavour that might take place if you had to re-heat.

Great idea. I'll make a container, especially for the Roshney Chicken and I'll post a photo here, soon. It's fortunate I happen to have some spare insulation block material lying around. These are lengths I'll go to in response to someone whose taste I trust. If Chris has just said he purchased the dish from that restaurant and ate in last night, but said nothing more - a bland objective statement - it would never have attracted my interest. It's only because he's obviously enthusiastic about it that I think it's worth checking out. I suggest it's similar for the way that recipes are written-up and presented.

George, do you not have a small cool box kicking around? That will do the job for you.

really hopeful on this one.

i presume the dish is what i think solarsplace mentioned in a previous post. i have it spelt "roshni" and on to "eat" list when i find it on a menu up north.

Yes - that's another good idea, thank you -  I can probably use my insulation blocks to fill out the spare space in my medium-sized cool box. Or some of the vermiculite I bought for my tandoor project, before it was abandoned.

I'm really feeling the pressure of the recommendation now! I'm hoping he will tell me how they make their exotic masala sauce, the rest of the dish should be fairly straightforward.

certainly no need - whatever info will be more than we know now. it's surprising how even with just a little info "gist" then we should be able collectively to get something close enough to add to our recipes.

best of luck and keep expectations low that way no disappointment.
