Topic: Chicken Madras Video Recipe - for lunch.

Chewy,

I've just cooked two chicken madras and I put the mix power and chill power in the tomato dilute and then added it to the pan and gave it a good sizzle.  End result tasted just as good as adding them separately and less chance of burning the spices. If I ever let the missus cook a curry this is the method I'll tell her to use.

Cheers,
London.

Nice one, London
As long as you get a good sizzle and get a good result, its all good. ;D

cheers chewy

I'm new to this obsession and I'm not familiar with lemon dressing, could someone please enlighten me?  Homemade would be best if possible since I live in Denmark and the grocery offerings are basic to say the least.

It's lemon juice, my friend, but made from concentrate, with additives to enhance the flavour/colour. It's a favourite amongst some of our more pretentious members

Homemade would be best

It's a less intense lemon juice flavour so you could just use half the amount of real lemon juice.

Of course if you want to make a real Madras you wouldn't use any lemon juice at all!

hi SS but from my experience all the restaurant kitchens I have been in, all use lemon dressing! having also cooked the madras in rajver and having posted the recipe and method on here. but then again I guess it is whatever floats your boat and where you are regionally! otherwise it is just a mild curry with extra chilli powder lol and no Worcester sauce insight!

That'll be me then  .  Just looked at my bottle and had a swig and its just watered down lemon juice.

The madras from my TA still comes with a wedge of lemon in it. Chef's been there for 30 years.

Cool!  Thanks... that's much easier than I expected.  I cannot believe the lengths I go to here to create the simplest of dishes from what's available.
