I will be moving onto vegetable dishes from next week using pre cooked vegetables.

Paneer Tikka Jalfrezi
Ingredients; paneer, green chillies, capsicums (red, yellow and green), red onions, tomato puree, tomatoes, jalfrezi paste, and coriander.

Hi Abdul,

All your recipes look good and as I said about the Chicken Ceylon on Friday, it was good, but I just felt it needed a little more Umph in my opinion. Do you think that by adding 1 tbsp of 8 spice like the dish above instead of the 1 tsp called for in the recipe would have enhanced the dish or in your opinion would it be too much?

Kind Regards,

Bob

Hi Bob,

Thank you for your feedback on the ceylon,  Yes by adding 1 tbsp of 8 spice instead of 1 tsp would enhance the dish

Hi Abdul

I don't know if I missed a post but are you still working in the restaurant/takeaway industry?  If so where, as it would be good for one of the members to try it out first hand

Hi Barry,

You have not missed a post as I have not told anyone where I work exactly and the only reason I mentioned that was so you would all know that I am still in the BIR industry. But I am talking to Stew (moderator/admin) with regards to inviting a few members to shadow me. Once we have made a decision, I will post the details of my restaurant. Also the reason why I have not named my restaurant is because I do not want our members to think that I am advertising as I had a similar problem with regards to my book.

I am here just to share my knowlegde with those who love to cook BIR style dishes.  ;D
 
Thank you,

Abdul

Still would love to see a pic of that

best, Rich
