Topic: Bombay Aloo Group Test

And i though political correctness was confined to Westminster and local town halls.  How wrong i was.  As for people being struck off, if this forum carries on behaving in this way, there will nobody left to strike off.  They will have all left and gone over to the dark side, having been sickened to death by the petty bickering that seems to pervade many threads which end up going off topic and result in a squabble.  We are all here because of one thing - our love and desire to cook BIR food.  Can we just focus on that, or is that not what this site is about?
i have actually frequented this site for just over two years now, and can say that it is probably as good an authority on BIR cooking as you can get(short of having several restaurant chefs contributing regularly to steer us in the right direction).  However, it does nothing for the site's reputation to see such bickering and infighting, especially when viewed by new members.  There is nothing worse than seeing something good hit the self destruct button and then watching it begin to tear itself apart. Lets all focus on the reasons why we are all here.
Now I've got that off my chest, can we please get back on topic?

I for one appreciate Phils(chaa) endeavour to simplify things in the group test as it helped me massivley today in conducting the aloo test. every recipe on one page thanks Phil

I can also understand any authors concerns, if it was say a newcomer like myself whom copied the recipes to another url then fair enough.

but chaa is a contributing member with good intentions and also gives a full and valid explanation in his earlier thread to CA.

BTW i enjoyed doing this test, i dont know which way it is going to go, different methods and recipes making it really interesting.

About too start the taste testing shortly blindfolded with mrs moony.

posting pics shortly

Alan ;D

Mooney,

I'm gonna do that too but once the blindfold is on, I'm gonna sneak off to the pub : ;D

This is not petty bickering. Copyright infringement and setting up a website (bir recipes) which looks like it might be lined up to compete with this one, is a potentially serious matter.

good idea phil, i will do a seperate batch of potatos for this test.

 I will post my findings on the difference in quality between the two precooked potatos.

regards

Alan ;D

ps CA please carry on posting your recipes, I like many others enjoy trying your dishes.

Hey moonster!

Did you manage to do your tests? got any photo's for us?

Planning to do a joint cook-a-long with Chris this Sat.

Quite excited to see all the scores!
